# Basic English conversation vs VAK Test

The clearest difference is rating: VAK Test at 5.0 against Basic English conversation's 4.2. VAK Test also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and review sentiment (100% vs 67%). Basic English conversation's advantage is ratings volume (49 vs 4) and device support. On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Basic English conversation sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. VAK Test asks for nothing beyond the download.

VAK Test holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.2.
