# Bloomberg Professional vs PANARAY Mobile

PANARAY Mobile also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (4 vs 2). Bloomberg Professional's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (461 vs 9). 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 — 3.7 for Bloomberg Professional against 3.7 for PANARAY Mobile.
