# Simulon vs Paralight

The clearest difference is rating: Paralight at 5.0 against Simulon's 4.4. Paralight also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Simulon's advantage is ratings volume (31 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simulon sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Paralight sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $70.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Paralight holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simulon has 31 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
