# MDA vs Notepad

The clearest difference is ads: MDA at none against Notepad's shown. Notepad's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MDA sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Notepad sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
