# Expense Track vs Spendly

The clearest difference is ads: Expense Track at none against Spendly's shown. Expense Track also leads on ratings volume (7 vs 1). Spendly's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Expense Track sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Spendly sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
