# InkDeck vs CardFlow

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CardFlow at none against InkDeck's 3. CardFlow also leads on ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. InkDeck sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. CardFlow asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.0 for InkDeck against 4.1 for CardFlow. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CardFlow has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
