# Matterport vs Half

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Half at 100% against Matterport's 26%. Half also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Matterport's advantage is ratings volume (4.2K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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

Half holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Matterport has 4.2K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
