# SideСhef vs BrushBite

The clearest difference is ratings volume: SideСhef at 1.7K against BrushBite's 1. SideСhef also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.6). BrushBite's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SideСhef sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and BrushBite sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

BrushBite holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SideСhef has 1.7K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
