# Doodle vs CoconutBoard

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CoconutBoard at none against Doodle's 4. CoconutBoard also leads on iOS requirement (18.1 vs 26.0). Doodle's advantage is device support (4 vs 2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Doodle sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. CoconutBoard asks for nothing beyond the download.
