# Pivo Track vs Hover

The clearest difference is rating: Pivo Track at 4.8 against Hover's 2.9. Pivo Track also leads on ratings volume (2.5K vs 101). Hover's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pivo Track sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $24.99 per month and Hover sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Pivo Track holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pivo Track has 2.5K ratings behind it against 101, so its average is the more settled of the two.
