# Vizzywig vs Screen Recorder

The clearest difference is rating: Screen Recorder at 4.5 against Vizzywig's 3.8. Screen Recorder also leads on monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and review sentiment (82% vs 48%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vizzywig sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Screen Recorder sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Screen Recorder holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Screen Recorder has 850 ratings behind it against 48, so its average is the more settled of the two.
