# Before/After vs Half

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Half at 100% against Before/After's 64%. Half also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Before/After's advantage is ratings volume (209 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Before/After sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Half asks for nothing beyond the download.

Half holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Before/After has 209 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 64% of Before/After's written reviews are positive against 100% of Half's.
