# VideoBox vs Receiver

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Receiver at none against VideoBox's 3. Receiver also leads on ads (none vs shown). VideoBox's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.1). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VideoBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Receiver asks for nothing beyond the download.
