# Zee 5 vs Hindi Devotional

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hindi Devotional at 100% against Zee 5's 15%. Hindi Devotional also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 22) and ads (none vs shown). Zee 5's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 23 months) and ratings volume (24K vs 2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Zee 5 sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Hindi Devotional asks for nothing beyond the download.

Hindi Devotional holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zee 5 has 24K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 15% of Zee 5's written reviews are positive against 100% of Hindi Devotional's.
