# BookWatch vs DoodleTales

The clearest difference is ads: DoodleTales at none against BookWatch's shown. BookWatch's advantage is chart position (#167 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BookWatch sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $8.99 per month and DoodleTales sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
