# Pleng vs PartyTu

The clearest difference is rating: PartyTu at 4.6 against Pleng's 4.0. PartyTu also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 36%) and ratings volume (4K vs 323). Pleng's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PartyTu sells 12 one-off in-app purchases. Pleng asks for nothing beyond the download.

PartyTu holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.0.
