# BatChat vs UUUTalk

The clearest difference is review sentiment: BatChat at 86% against UUUTalk's 50%. BatChat also leads on rating (3.5 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (99 vs 19). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BatChat sells 27 one-off in-app purchases and UUUTalk sells 11 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
