# Copy My Data vs Quick Start

The clearest difference is rating: Copy My Data at 4.5 against Quick Start's 3.7. Copy My Data also leads on ratings volume (16K vs 114) and review sentiment (29% vs 13%). Quick Start's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Copy My Data sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Quick Start sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Copy My Data holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Copy My Data has 16K ratings behind it against 114, so its average is the more settled of the two.
