# XText vs SecretPixel

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: XText at 15.0 against SecretPixel's 18.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. XText sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and SecretPixel sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
