# Multiplier vs BoneGauge

The clearest difference is monetization model: BoneGauge at free against Multiplier's paid. BoneGauge also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Multiplier's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

BoneGauge holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Multiplier has 24 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
