# Color by Numbers vs Quartix

The clearest difference is rating: Quartix at 5.0 against Color by Numbers's 4.5. Quartix also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Color by Numbers's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 2) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Color by Numbers sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Quartix sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Quartix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Color by Numbers has 2.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of Color by Numbers's written reviews are positive against 100% of Quartix's.
