# Circle vs Kickup FRVR

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Kickup FRVR at 100% against Circle's 43%. Kickup FRVR also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). Circle's advantage is ratings volume (5.5K vs 15) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 13 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Circle sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Kickup FRVR sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Circle has 5.5K ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two.
