# Decibel Magazine vs Night Flight Plus

The clearest difference is rating: Night Flight Plus at 4.6 against Decibel Magazine's 2.1. Night Flight Plus also leads on ratings volume (793 vs 15). Decibel Magazine's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Decibel Magazine sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per 6 months and Night Flight Plus sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Night Flight Plus holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Night Flight Plus has 793 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two.
