# NetSonar vs TimeWave

The clearest difference is price: TimeWave at Free against NetSonar's $0.99. TimeWave also leads on ratings volume (52 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). NetSonar's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.

TimeWave is free to download; NetSonar costs $0.99 up front. TimeWave sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. NetSonar asks for nothing beyond the download.
