# Custom Rocket vs Space Shuttle Agency

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Custom Rocket at 92% against Space Shuttle Agency's 39%. Custom Rocket also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). Space Shuttle Agency's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (859 vs 3). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space Shuttle Agency sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Custom Rocket asks for nothing beyond the download.

Space Shuttle Agency holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Space Shuttle Agency has 859 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Custom Rocket's written reviews are positive against 39% of Space Shuttle Agency's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
