# HeatNext vs 扫描识字

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: 扫描识字 at 11.0 against HeatNext's 13.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. HeatNext sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and 扫描识字 sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
