# iPDF vs PDF Editor

The clearest difference is review sentiment: iPDF at 100% against PDF Editor's 33%. iPDF also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3). PDF Editor's advantage is ratings volume (57 vs 3) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iPDF sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and PDF Editor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

iPDF holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PDF Editor has 57 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of iPDF's written reviews are positive against 33% of PDF Editor's.
