# WatchCord vs BotGhost

WatchCord and BotGhost both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 82% of BotGhost's written reviews are positive against 18% of WatchCord's. WatchCord's advantage is ratings volume (542 vs 18). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WatchCord sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and BotGhost sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for WatchCord against 4.3 for BotGhost. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WatchCord has 542 ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 18% of WatchCord's written reviews are positive against 82% of BotGhost's.
