# Pilot vs Q400

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Pilot at 15.0 against Q400's 18.6. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pilot sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per year and Q400 sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
