# Simply Filter SMS vs SMS Filter Pro

The clearest difference is rating: SMS Filter Pro at 5.0 against Simply Filter SMS's 4.4. SMS Filter Pro also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%). Simply Filter SMS's advantage is ratings volume (65 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simply Filter SMS sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and SMS Filter Pro sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

SMS Filter Pro holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simply Filter SMS has 65 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 83% of Simply Filter SMS's written reviews are positive against 100% of SMS Filter Pro's.
