# Blurt vs Neon

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Neon at none against Blurt's 1. Neon also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 76%). Blurt's advantage is ratings volume (28 vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Blurt sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Neon asks for nothing beyond the download.

Neon holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Blurt has 28 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 76% of Blurt's written reviews are positive against 100% of Neon's.
