# FireworksToy vs Ghost detector

The clearest difference is rating: Ghost detector at 4.4 against FireworksToy's 2.6. FireworksToy's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Ghost detector holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.6.
