# XLR8 vs Crypt Prices

The clearest difference is price: Crypt Prices at Free against XLR8's $4.99. Crypt Prices also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.0) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 7 months). XLR8's advantage is ratings volume (168 vs 2) and chart position (#149 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Crypt Prices is free to download; XLR8 costs $4.99 up front. XLR8 sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Crypt Prices sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
