# Santoor vs Flute Pro

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Santoor at 69% against Flute Pro's 0%. Santoor also leads on rating (4.3 vs 2.3) and ratings volume (242 vs 3). Flute Pro's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Santoor sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Flute Pro sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Santoor holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Santoor has 242 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 69% of Santoor's written reviews are positive against 0% of Flute Pro's.
