# Machine Yearning vs Spell Sense

The clearest difference is ads: Machine Yearning at none against Spell Sense's shown. Machine Yearning also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 57%) and ratings volume (53 vs 3). Spell Sense's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Machine Yearning sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Spell Sense sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spell Sense holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Machine Yearning has 53 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 89% of Machine Yearning's written reviews are positive against 57% of Spell Sense's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
