# MyCertificate vs Certificate Maker

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MyCertificate at 40% against Certificate Maker's 0%. MyCertificate also leads on ads (none vs shown). Certificate Maker's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MyCertificate sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Certificate Maker sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
