# Front Porch Forum vs MAKE

MAKE also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Front Porch Forum's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and ratings volume (36 vs 1).

Both are free to download. Front Porch Forum sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $10.00 per month and MAKE sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
