# IELTSpeaking vs 流利说·雅思

The clearest difference is rating: IELTSpeaking at 4.6 against 流利说·雅思's 3.1. IELTSpeaking also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 9). 流利说·雅思's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IELTSpeaking sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and 流利说·雅思 sells 9 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: IELTSpeaking has 1.2K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two.
