# STARZ vs The Stompdown

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Stompdown at none against STARZ's 8. The Stompdown also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). STARZ's advantage is chart position (#15 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. STARZ sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. The Stompdown asks for nothing beyond the download.
