# Life Simulator vs Timeflow Lite

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Timeflow Lite at none against Life Simulator's 11. Timeflow Lite also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Life Simulator's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (287 vs 5). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Life Simulator sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Timeflow Lite asks for nothing beyond the download.

Life Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Life Simulator has 287 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Life Simulator's written reviews are positive against 75% of Timeflow Lite's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
