# API Bot vs Requesta

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Requesta at none against API Bot's 1. Requesta also leads on ads (none vs shown). API Bot's advantage is ratings volume (17 vs 1). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. API Bot sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Requesta asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for API Bot against 5.0 for Requesta. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: API Bot has 17 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
