# RAM® vs Powerball Live

The clearest difference is rating: RAM® at 4.8 against Powerball Live's 4.0. RAM® also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). Powerball Live's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, review sentiment, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Powerball Live sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. RAM® asks for nothing beyond the download.

RAM® holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RAM® has 95K ratings behind it against 1.7K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 31% of RAM®'s written reviews are positive against 25% of Powerball Live's.

RAM® ships an update monthly, Powerball Live every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
