# AwardTool vs PointsGPT

The clearest difference is rating: PointsGPT at 4.3 against AwardTool's 2.7. PointsGPT also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks) and chart position (#66 vs unranked). AwardTool's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AwardTool sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $12.99 per month and PointsGPT sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PointsGPT holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 2.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 16 respectively. Written reviews point the same way: 40% of AwardTool's written reviews are positive against 50% of PointsGPT's.
