# Cross DJ vs KondZilla Beat Maker

The clearest difference is rating: KondZilla Beat Maker at 4.6 against Cross DJ's 4.0. KondZilla Beat Maker also leads on review sentiment (64% vs 49%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.4). Cross DJ's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cross DJ sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and KondZilla Beat Maker sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

KondZilla Beat Maker holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cross DJ has 2K ratings behind it against 51, so its average is the more settled of the two.
