# PopAGraph vs Square Sized

The clearest difference is monetization model: PopAGraph at freemium against Square Sized's subscription. PopAGraph also leads on review sentiment (81% vs 61%) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). Square Sized's advantage is ratings volume (8.2K vs 301). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PopAGraph sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Square Sized sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PopAGraph holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Square Sized has 8.2K ratings behind it against 301, so its average is the more settled of the two.
