# Canon+ vs BooX

The clearest difference is ads: BooX at none against Canon+'s shown. BooX also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months). Canon+'s advantage is chart position (#147 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Canon+ sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and BooX sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Canon+ ships an update every 3 months, BooX every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 17, 2026 respectively.
