# RA Tracker vs Quartix

The clearest difference is rating: Quartix at 5.0 against RA Tracker's 4.5. Quartix also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). RA Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (53 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RA Tracker sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Quartix sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Quartix holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RA Tracker has 53 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 85% of RA Tracker's written reviews are positive against 100% of Quartix's.
