# KHL vs Барселона

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Барселона at none against KHL's 22. KHL's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 12) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KHL sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Барселона asks for nothing beyond the download.

KHL holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: KHL has 1.7K ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of KHL's written reviews are positive against 48% of Барселона's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

KHL ships an update every 6 weeks, Барселона every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and September 11, 2026 respectively.
