# Wildfire Tracker vs Meteor Shower

The clearest difference is rating: Meteor Shower at 5.0 against Wildfire Tracker's 4.5. Meteor Shower also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). Wildfire Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (206 vs 3) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Wildfire Tracker sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Meteor Shower sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
