# IARVEL vs Even G1

The clearest difference is review sentiment: IARVEL at 100% against Even G1's 53%. IARVEL also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.7) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). Even G1's advantage is ratings volume (75 vs 7). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Even G1 sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. IARVEL asks for nothing beyond the download.
