# A24 vs Hardcopy

The clearest difference is rating: Hardcopy at 5.0 against A24's 3.6. Hardcopy also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). A24's advantage is ratings volume (206 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. A24 sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Hardcopy asks for nothing beyond the download.

Hardcopy holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: A24 has 206 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
