# PredictCurrent vs My Marine Forecast

The clearest difference is review sentiment: My Marine Forecast at 100% against PredictCurrent's 57%. My Marine Forecast also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). PredictCurrent's advantage is ratings volume (272 vs 26) and chart position (#93 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PredictCurrent sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $15.00 per month and My Marine Forecast sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
