# Mimir Mental Math Lite vs memoryOS

Mimir Mental Math Lite's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 28) and review sentiment (92% vs 80%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

memoryOS holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Mimir Mental Math Lite's written reviews are positive against 80% of memoryOS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
