# FSharing vs Mach Drive

FSharing and Mach Drive both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 76% of FSharing's written reviews are positive against 20% of Mach Drive's. FSharing also leads on ratings volume (887 vs 7). Mach Drive's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (8.1 vs 10). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. FSharing sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Mach Drive sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for FSharing against 4.4 for Mach Drive. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FSharing has 887 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 76% of FSharing's written reviews are positive against 20% of Mach Drive's.
