# NERVE. vs Seda

The clearest difference is rating: Seda at 5.0 against NERVE.'s 4.4. Seda also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 73%) and device support (3 vs 1). NERVE.'s advantage is ratings volume (80 vs 13). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NERVE. sells 16 one-off in-app purchases and Seda sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Seda holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NERVE. has 80 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two.
