# TunerView vs VIN

The clearest difference is rating: TunerView at 3.1 against VIN's 1.0. TunerView also leads on ratings volume (41 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). VIN's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. TunerView sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. VIN asks for nothing beyond the download.

TunerView holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TunerView has 41 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
