# Shadow Work vs Shadow Work

Shadow Work and Shadow Work both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Shadow Work's written reviews are positive against 59% of Shadow Work's. Shadow Work's advantage is ratings volume (342 vs 20) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Shadow Work sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month and Shadow Work sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Shadow Work against 4.8 for Shadow Work. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shadow Work has 342 ratings behind it against 20, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 59% of Shadow Work's written reviews are positive against 100% of Shadow Work's.
