# Switcher vs Live Switcher Mobile

The clearest difference is rating: Switcher at 4.6 against Live Switcher Mobile's 3.4. Switcher also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Switcher sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $64.99 per month and Live Switcher Mobile sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $17.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Switcher has 2.4K ratings behind it against 14, so its average is the more settled of the two.
