# Pineapple Pen vs 8 Up

The clearest difference is ads: 8 Up at none against Pineapple Pen's shown. Pineapple Pen's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 18.6). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pineapple Pen sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and 8 Up sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
