# Smart Counter vs Duel

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Duel at none against Smart Counter's 1. Duel also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Smart Counter's advantage is device support. On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart Counter sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Duel asks for nothing beyond the download.
