# Bug ID vs Chalk

The clearest difference is rating: Bug ID at 4.0 against Chalk's 1.0. Bug ID also leads on ratings volume (844 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Bug ID sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Chalk sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Bug ID holds the better App Store score, 4.0 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bug ID has 844 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
