# Sofra vs Burda

Sofra and Burda are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters — price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. Sofra sells 36 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per 6 months and Burda sells 36 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 3 months. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
