# Power Playlist vs Start Playing

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Start Playing at 100% against Power Playlist's 27%. Start Playing also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.5). Power Playlist's advantage is ratings volume (31 vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Power Playlist sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Start Playing sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Start Playing holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Power Playlist has 31 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 27% of Power Playlist's written reviews are positive against 100% of Start Playing's.
