# Echo vs Pulse

The clearest difference is ads: Pulse at none against Echo's shown. Pulse also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Echo against 5.0 for Pulse. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
