# GlucoWatch vs MacroPilot

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MacroPilot at 100% against GlucoWatch's 69%. MacroPilot also leads on rating (4.0 vs 3.6). GlucoWatch's advantage is ratings volume (206 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. GlucoWatch sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and MacroPilot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

MacroPilot holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GlucoWatch has 206 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 69% of GlucoWatch's written reviews are positive against 100% of MacroPilot's.
