# Grow vs DEVO

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Grow at 590 against DEVO's 3. Grow also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 50%). DEVO's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

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

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for Grow against 4.3 for DEVO.
