# Secure Search vs Braver Search

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Secure Search at 9.1 against Braver Search's 16.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Secure Search sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Braver Search sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
