# Spending Tracker vs myMoney

The clearest difference is ads: myMoney at none against Spending Tracker's shown. myMoney also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Spending Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (20K vs 7) and device support (5 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spending Tracker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and myMoney sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

myMoney holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8.
