# Tally vs Watch Counters

The clearest difference is price: Tally at Free against Watch Counters's $0.99. Tally also leads on ratings volume (1.8K vs 4). Watch Counters's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 61%) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
