# NeuroNation vs Dual N

The clearest difference is rating: NeuroNation at 4.7 against Dual N's 3.8. NeuroNation also leads on ratings volume (4.5K vs 4) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. NeuroNation sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per 3 months and Dual N sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

NeuroNation holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NeuroNation has 4.5K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
