# Chatbox vs 即账

The clearest difference is rating: 即账 at 5.0 against Chatbox's 4.6. Chatbox's advantage is ratings volume (674 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

即账 holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Chatbox has 674 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
