# Outside vs REDLN

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: REDLN at none against Outside's 17. REDLN also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Outside's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Outside sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. REDLN asks for nothing beyond the download.

REDLN holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Outside has 2.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
