# iBaloot vs Elite Baloot

The clearest difference is rating: Elite Baloot at 5.0 against iBaloot's 2.3. iBaloot's advantage is ratings volume (19 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iBaloot sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 3 months and Elite Baloot sells 17 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
