# Tiny Monsters™ vs OviPets

The clearest difference is rating: OviPets at 4.5 against Tiny Monsters™'s 4.0. OviPets also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 6 weeks). Tiny Monsters™'s advantage is iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Monsters™ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and OviPets sells 20 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

OviPets holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 586 and 240 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Tiny Monsters™'s written reviews are positive against 57% of OviPets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
