# Dot Lunch vs Soul.io

The clearest difference is rating: Soul.io at 4.7 against Dot Lunch's 3.7. Soul.io also leads on ratings volume (8K vs 18). Dot Lunch's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Soul.io holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soul.io has 8K ratings behind it against 18, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Dot Lunch's written reviews are positive against 53% of Soul.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
