# touch grass vs Task Roulette

The clearest difference is ratings volume: touch grass at 3K against Task Roulette's 2. Task Roulette's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 76%) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. touch grass sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Task Roulette sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

touch grass holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: touch grass has 3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of touch grass's written reviews are positive against 100% of Task Roulette's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
