# Screens 5 vs TechSheet

The clearest difference is rating: TechSheet at 5.0 against Screens 5's 4.5. Screens 5's advantage is ratings volume (572 vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screens 5 sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and TechSheet sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

TechSheet holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screens 5 has 572 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
