# Vimtag vs blurams

The clearest difference is rating: blurams at 4.8 against Vimtag's 2.2. blurams also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and review sentiment (55% vs 21%). Vimtag's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Vimtag sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and blurams sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
