# RepCount vs Plate Math

The clearest difference is rating: RepCount at 4.9 against Plate Math's 3.0. RepCount also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (13K vs 2). Plate Math's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RepCount sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Plate Math sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RepCount holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RepCount has 13K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
