# QuickDrop vs CargaT

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CargaT at none against QuickDrop's 3. CargaT also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 68%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 11 days). QuickDrop's advantage is ratings volume (137 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. QuickDrop sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. CargaT asks for nothing beyond the download.

CargaT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7.
