# Birthday Countdown & Reminders vs Countdown!

The clearest difference is rating: Birthday Countdown & Reminders at 4.7 against Countdown!'s 3.5. Birthday Countdown & Reminders also leads on ratings volume (125 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.6 vs 17.6). Countdown!'s advantage is review sentiment (92% vs 55%) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Birthday Countdown & Reminders sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Countdown! asks for nothing beyond the download.

Birthday Countdown & Reminders holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Birthday Countdown & Reminders has 125 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Birthday Countdown & Reminders's written reviews are positive against 92% of Countdown!'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
