# On3 App vs State 1878

The clearest difference is rating: State 1878 at 5.0 against On3 App's 3.4. On3 App's advantage is ratings volume (254 vs 3) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. On3 App sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and State 1878 sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $8.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
