# IC vs ThinkFrame

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: ThinkFrame at 17.0 against IC's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. IC sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and ThinkFrame sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
