# Duet Display vs UltimatePointer

The clearest difference is rating: Duet Display at 4.4 against UltimatePointer's 1.0. Duet Display also leads on ratings volume (49K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Duet Display sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and UltimatePointer sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Duet Display holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Duet Display has 49K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
