# Pocket vs RetroLumo

The clearest difference is ads: Pocket at none against RetroLumo's shown. Pocket also leads on ratings volume (15 vs 2) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pocket sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and RetroLumo sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Pocket against 5.0 for RetroLumo. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pocket has 15 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
