# EECU vs Tucoemas

The clearest difference is ads: Tucoemas at none against EECU's shown. Tucoemas also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). EECU's advantage is ratings volume (36K vs 2.2K) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 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 EECU against 4.8 for Tucoemas. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EECU has 36K ratings behind it against 2.2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 65% of EECU's written reviews are positive against 61% of Tucoemas's.
