# FaceShow vs FaceMagic

FaceShow and FaceMagic both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 21% of FaceShow's written reviews are positive against 0% of FaceMagic's. FaceShow also leads on ratings volume (128 vs 10). FaceMagic's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FaceShow sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days and FaceMagic sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FaceShow has 128 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two.
