# Olas vs Radar

The clearest difference is rating: Radar at 4.8 against Olas's 3.0. Radar also leads on ratings volume (20 vs 2). Olas's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Radar holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Radar has 20 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Olas's written reviews are positive against 67% of Radar's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
