# Bridges vs LabForge

The clearest difference is rating: LabForge at 5.0 against Bridges's 4.4. LabForge also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). Bridges's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bridges sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and LabForge sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

LabForge holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bridges has 17 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
