# Barbelo's Echo vs Shadow Work

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Shadow Work at 23 against Barbelo's Echo's 2. On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Barbelo's Echo sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Shadow Work sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 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 — 5.0 for Barbelo's Echo against 4.9 for Shadow Work. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Shadow Work has 23 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
