# WakeUp课程表 vs 水课帮

The clearest difference is rating: 水课帮 at 5.0 against WakeUp课程表's 1.8. 水课帮 also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 29%) and ads (none vs shown). WakeUp课程表's advantage is ratings volume (38 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WakeUp课程表 sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and 水课帮 sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
