# YBox vs PasteBox

The clearest difference is update cadence: PasteBox at every 4 days against YBox's every 5 weeks. YBox's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. YBox sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and PasteBox sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

YBox ships an update every 5 weeks, PasteBox every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
