# Interviewer vs HotSeat

The clearest difference is rating: HotSeat at 5.0 against Interviewer's 4.6. HotSeat also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 86%). Interviewer's advantage is ratings volume (19 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Interviewer sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and HotSeat sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

HotSeat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Interviewer has 19 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 86% of Interviewer's written reviews are positive against 100% of HotSeat's.
