# xTerminal vs StealthOp

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: StealthOp at none against xTerminal's 4. StealthOp also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). xTerminal's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 1) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. xTerminal sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. StealthOp asks for nothing beyond the download.

StealthOp holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: xTerminal has 2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
