# Pixel Studio vs MeshVault

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Pixel Studio at 15.0 against MeshVault's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pixel Studio sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and MeshVault sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
