# CTA Dex vs Utopia Builder

The clearest difference is ratings volume: CTA Dex at 1.2K against Utopia Builder's 88. CTA Dex also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CTA Dex sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Utopia Builder sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for CTA Dex against 4.9 for Utopia Builder. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CTA Dex has 1.2K ratings behind it against 88, so its average is the more settled of the two.
