# Space vs Thought Tracker CBT

The clearest difference is rating: Thought Tracker CBT at 5.0 against Space's 4.7. Thought Tracker CBT also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and device support (3 vs 1). Space's advantage is ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per year and Thought Tracker CBT sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Thought Tracker CBT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
