# BLW Meals vs BLW Diary

The clearest difference is rating: BLW Diary at 5.0 against BLW Meals's 3.5. BLW Diary also leads on ads (none vs shown). BLW Meals's advantage is review sentiment (98% vs 70%) and ratings volume (13 vs 4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BLW Meals sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and BLW Diary sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BLW Diary holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 13 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 98% of BLW Meals's written reviews are positive against 70% of BLW Diary's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
