# Tiny Invoice vs Orbit

The clearest difference is monetization model: Orbit at free with in-app purchases against Tiny Invoice's subscription. Orbit also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (5 vs 3). Tiny Invoice's advantage is ratings volume (10K vs 34) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tiny Invoice sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Orbit sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Tiny Invoice holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Invoice has 10K ratings behind it against 34, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 80% of Tiny Invoice's written reviews are positive against 64% of Orbit's.
