# Metion vs Draftly

The clearest difference is device support: Metion at 4 against Draftly's 2. Metion also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Metion sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Draftly sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
