# Video + vs PaperKit

The clearest difference is ads: PaperKit at none against Video +'s shown. Video +'s advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Video + sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and PaperKit sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Video + ships an update every 2 weeks, PaperKit every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 3, 2026 respectively.
