# ieGeek vs Pulse

The clearest difference is rating: Pulse at 5.0 against ieGeek's 2.6. Pulse also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). ieGeek's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ieGeek sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Pulse asks for nothing beyond the download.
