# Pretty Makeup vs Phorium

The clearest difference is ads: Phorium at none against Pretty Makeup's shown. Pretty Makeup's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pretty Makeup sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Phorium sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
