# Selector vs MEISAI

The clearest difference is update cadence: MEISAI at every 2 weeks against Selector's every 56 months. MEISAI also leads on ratings volume (98 vs 8). Selector's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 58%) and price ($0.99 vs $1.99). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Selector costs $0.99 and MEISAI $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Selector against 4.7 for MEISAI. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MEISAI has 98 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two.
