# Pre Master vs Takashi

The clearest difference is rating: Takashi at 4.7 against Pre Master's 3.5. Takashi also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 39%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). Pre Master's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pre Master sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Takashi sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
