# 58同城 vs 海棠

The clearest difference is rating: 海棠 at 5.0 against 58同城's 4.3. 海棠 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (78% vs 44%). 58同城's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 58同城 sells 55 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per month and 海棠 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

海棠 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 58同城 has 1.5K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
