# Convose vs Elele

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Convose at none against Elele's 19. Convose also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Elele's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 8). On price, rating and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Elele sells 19 in-app purchases, starting at $2.89 per 7 days. Convose asks for nothing beyond the download.
