# Happy vs RemoteIDE

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Happy at 991 against RemoteIDE's 2. Happy also leads on chart position (#91 vs unranked) 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. Happy sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per month and RemoteIDE sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Happy against 5.0 for RemoteIDE. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Happy has 991 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
