# Fruit Merge™ vs Cell Sort

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cell Sort at none against Fruit Merge™'s 10. Cell Sort also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). Fruit Merge™'s advantage is ratings volume (320K vs 1) and chart position (#85 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fruit Merge™ sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Cell Sort asks for nothing beyond the download.

Cell Sort holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fruit Merge™ has 320K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
