# Gist Money vs Bean

The clearest difference is device support: Gist Money at 3 against Bean's 1. Gist Money also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Gist Money sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Bean sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $20.00 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
