# Wallaroo vs Sci

The clearest difference is price: Wallaroo at Free against Sci's $3.99. Wallaroo also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.7) and ratings volume (213 vs 9). Sci's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (83% vs 58%). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Wallaroo is free to download; Sci costs $3.99 up front. Wallaroo sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Sci asks for nothing beyond the download.

Wallaroo holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wallaroo has 213 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 58% of Wallaroo's written reviews are positive against 83% of Sci's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
