# Squeeze vs ClearStatus

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Squeeze at 86% against ClearStatus's 0%. Squeeze also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.0) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Squeeze sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and ClearStatus sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Squeeze holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.0.
