# WingX® vs FlightChecked

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: FlightChecked at 15.1 against WingX®'s 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. WingX® sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and FlightChecked sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
