# Collector vs PlaneBase

The clearest difference is rating: PlaneBase at 5.0 against Collector's 2.8. PlaneBase also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2). Collector's advantage is ratings volume (73 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Collector sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. PlaneBase asks for nothing beyond the download.
