# Framed vs FrameGuide

The clearest difference is rating: FrameGuide at 5.0 against Framed's 4.0. Framed's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (37 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Framed sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days and FrameGuide sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

FrameGuide holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Framed has 37 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
