# Waffle vs Chore Chart

Waffle and Chore Chart both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 45% of Waffle's written reviews are positive against 0% of Chore Chart's. Waffle also leads on ratings volume (11K vs 13) and chart position (#143 vs unranked). Chore Chart's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Waffle sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days. Chore Chart asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.6 for Waffle against 4.5 for Chore Chart. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Waffle has 11K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 45% of Waffle's written reviews are positive against 0% of Chore Chart's.
