# BMI Calculator vs MacroPilot

The clearest difference is rating: BMI Calculator at 4.9 against MacroPilot's 4.0. BMI Calculator also leads on ratings volume (374 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). MacroPilot's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 83%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BMI Calculator sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and MacroPilot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BMI Calculator holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BMI Calculator has 374 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of BMI Calculator's written reviews are positive against 100% of MacroPilot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
