# Comet vs Watch Tower Pro

The clearest difference is price: Comet at Free against Watch Tower Pro's $4.99. Comet also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (7.8K vs 5). Watch Tower Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
