# PhotoGrid vs Clone Yourself

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PhotoGrid at 90% against Clone Yourself's 6%. PhotoGrid also leads on rating (4.9 vs 3.5) and ratings volume (118K vs 245). Clone Yourself's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PhotoGrid sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Clone Yourself sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PhotoGrid holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PhotoGrid has 118K ratings behind it against 245, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of PhotoGrid's written reviews are positive against 6% of Clone Yourself's.
