# Desyne vs Certificate Creator

The clearest difference is update cadence: Certificate Creator at every 2 days against Desyne's every 2 weeks. Certificate Creator also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 63%). Desyne's advantage is ratings volume (759 vs 21) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Desyne sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Certificate Creator sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Desyne against 4.6 for Certificate Creator. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Desyne has 759 ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two.
