# Click Counter vs Volume Counter

The clearest difference is ads: Volume Counter at none against Click Counter's shown. Volume Counter also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Click Counter's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 2) and device support (4 vs 2). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
