# EMFMeter vs Veil

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Veil at 100% against EMFMeter's 60%. Veil also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). EMFMeter's advantage is ratings volume (106 vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. EMFMeter sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and Veil sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Veil holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: EMFMeter has 106 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 60% of EMFMeter's written reviews are positive against 100% of Veil's.
