# LiveFire vs ASP UNLIMITED

The clearest difference is monetization model: LiveFire at free with in-app purchases against ASP UNLIMITED's subscription. ASP UNLIMITED's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (326 vs 32). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LiveFire sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and ASP UNLIMITED sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
