# Code Editor vs KNX Inspector

The clearest difference is review sentiment: KNX Inspector at 100% against Code Editor's 54%. KNX Inspector also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Code Editor's advantage is chart position (#76 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Code Editor sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and KNX Inspector sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
