# BRED vs Impots.gouv

The clearest difference is rating: BRED at 4.6 against Impots.gouv's 3.0. BRED also leads on ratings volume (1.6K vs 21) and review sentiment (67% vs 52%). Impots.gouv's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). 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.

BRED holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BRED has 1.6K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 67% of BRED's written reviews are positive against 52% of Impots.gouv's.

BRED ships an update every 9 days, Impots.gouv every 3 weeks. Both last shipped on September 26, 2026.
