# Cookie Clickers vs *Tap Tap*

The clearest difference is rating: Cookie Clickers at 4.1 against *Tap Tap*'s 2.5. Cookie Clickers also leads on ratings volume (5.1K vs 2) and chart position (#67 vs unranked). *Tap Tap*'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 16) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cookie Clickers sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. *Tap Tap* asks for nothing beyond the download.

Cookie Clickers holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Cookie Clickers has 5.1K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Cookie Clickers's written reviews are positive against 100% of *Tap Tap*'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
