# Syriac Reader vs Symbol Atlas

The clearest difference is rating: Symbol Atlas at 5.0 against Syriac Reader's 3.6. Syriac Reader's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Symbol Atlas sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Syriac Reader asks for nothing beyond the download.

Symbol Atlas holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Syriac Reader has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
