# Lilacs vs Wraith.Chat

The clearest difference is rating: Wraith.Chat at 5.0 against Lilacs's 4.5. Wraith.Chat also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 81%). Lilacs's advantage is ratings volume (89 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lilacs sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and Wraith.Chat sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Wraith.Chat holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lilacs has 89 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 81% of Lilacs's written reviews are positive against 100% of Wraith.Chat's.
