# Ray.Radar Detector vs Radar Detector

The clearest difference is rating: Radar Detector at 4.5 against Ray.Radar Detector's 3.7. Radar Detector also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (156 vs 3). Ray.Radar Detector's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Ray.Radar Detector sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Radar Detector sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Radar Detector holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Radar Detector has 156 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 38% of Ray.Radar Detector's written reviews are positive against 33% of Radar Detector's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
