# DISH Anywhere vs Squishme

The clearest difference is ads: Squishme at none against DISH Anywhere's shown. Squishme also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). DISH Anywhere's advantage is ratings volume (266K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Squishme holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DISH Anywhere has 266K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
