# Learn Drums vs Practice The Drums

Learn Drums and Practice The Drums both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Practice The Drums's written reviews are positive against 55% of Learn Drums's. Learn Drums's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Learn Drums sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and Practice The Drums sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
