# Casting Networks vs Up Cycle

The clearest difference is rating: Casting Networks at 4.6 against Up Cycle's 2.6. Casting Networks also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 13) and chart position (#98 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Casting Networks sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $29.99 per month and Up Cycle sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Casting Networks holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Casting Networks has 1.6K ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 22% of Casting Networks's written reviews are positive against 20% of Up Cycle's.
