# Buffer vs Pashi

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Pashi at 100% against Buffer's 55%. Pashi also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 12) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Buffer's advantage is ratings volume (34K vs 4) and chart position (#127 vs unranked). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Buffer sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Pashi asks for nothing beyond the download.
