# UseePlus vs SV Max

The clearest difference is review sentiment: UseePlus at 25% against SV Max's 0%. UseePlus also leads on ratings volume (303 vs 3). SV Max's advantage is rating (2.7 vs 2.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

SV Max holds the better App Store score, 2.7 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UseePlus has 303 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 25% of UseePlus's written reviews are positive against 0% of SV Max's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
