# Riptide GP2 vs Drone Racing

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Drone Racing at none against Riptide GP2's 7. Drone Racing also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Riptide GP2's advantage is ratings volume (6.8K vs 2) and chart position (#188 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Riptide GP2 sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Drone Racing asks for nothing beyond the download.

Drone Racing holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Riptide GP2 has 6.8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 91% of Riptide GP2's written reviews are positive against 100% of Drone Racing's.
