# Ando vs Buzz

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Buzz at 64 against Ando's 10. Buzz also leads on review sentiment (59% vs 50%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.3 for Ando against 4.2 for Buzz. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Buzz has 64 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 50% of Ando's written reviews are positive against 59% of Buzz's.
