# Cuddle vs Purpur

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Purpur at 100% against Cuddle's 56%. Purpur also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5). Cuddle's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (106 vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cuddle sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Purpur sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
