# Boostcamp vs Plate Math

The clearest difference is rating: Boostcamp at 4.8 against Plate Math's 3.0. Boostcamp also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 2) and chart position (#163 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Boostcamp sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and Plate Math sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Boostcamp holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Boostcamp has 10K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
