# Robotics vs ALLBOT

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ALLBOT at 100% against Robotics's 13%. ALLBOT also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 10.3). Robotics's advantage is ratings volume (239 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

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

ALLBOT holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Robotics has 239 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 13% of Robotics's written reviews are positive against 100% of ALLBOT's.
