# Incremental vs Habit Tracker

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Incremental at none against Habit Tracker's 11. Incremental also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). Habit Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (2.5K vs 6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
