# rr vs Platypus Evolution

The clearest difference is rating: Platypus Evolution at 4.8 against rr's 4.1. Platypus Evolution also leads on review sentiment (93% vs 68%) and ratings volume (6.1K vs 84). rr's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. rr sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Platypus Evolution sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Platypus Evolution holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Platypus Evolution has 6.1K ratings behind it against 84, so its average is the more settled of the two.
