# iHalloween Countdown vs GOTCHA

The clearest difference is rating: GOTCHA at 5.0 against iHalloween Countdown's 4.8. iHalloween Countdown's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iHalloween Countdown sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per year and GOTCHA sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

GOTCHA holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iHalloween Countdown has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
