# SMSCat vs 实况捷径

The clearest difference is review sentiment: 实况捷径 at 100% against SMSCat's 33%. 实况捷径 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4). SMSCat's advantage is ratings volume (34 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMSCat sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and 实况捷径 sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.39 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
