# Snowballing vs Linery

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Snowballing at 42 against Linery's 1. Snowballing also leads on monetization model (freemium vs paid) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Snowballing sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Linery sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
