# PDF vs Barbillon BMS Connect

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Barbillon BMS Connect at none against PDF's 10. Barbillon BMS Connect also leads on ads (none vs shown). PDF's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PDF sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Barbillon BMS Connect asks for nothing beyond the download.
