# Patchim Training vs Korean 101

The clearest difference is ads: Korean 101 at none against Patchim Training's shown. Korean 101 also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (100% vs 80%). Patchim Training's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (136 vs 25). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Patchim Training sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Korean 101 sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Patchim Training holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Patchim Training has 136 ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Patchim Training's written reviews are positive against 100% of Korean 101's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
