# iSharing vs MixerBox BFF

The clearest difference is ads: MixerBox BFF at none against iSharing's shown. MixerBox BFF also leads on review sentiment (85% vs 67%). iSharing's advantage is chart position (#109 vs unranked) and ratings volume (37K vs 7.2K). On price, rating, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iSharing sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and MixerBox BFF sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for iSharing against 4.9 for MixerBox BFF. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iSharing has 37K ratings behind it against 7.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two.
