# Drops vs Nilu'nal

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Nilu'nal at none against Drops's 13. Nilu'nal also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 75%). Drops's advantage is ratings volume (72K vs 1) and chart position (#189 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Drops sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Nilu'nal asks for nothing beyond the download.

Nilu'nal holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Drops has 72K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 75% of Drops's written reviews are positive against 100% of Nilu'nal's.
