# Ever After vs Wedding Countdown

The clearest difference is rating: Ever After at 4.9 against Wedding Countdown's 4.2. Ever After also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (88% vs 73%). Wedding Countdown's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
