# Smart View vs Test Files

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Test Files at 13.0 against Smart View's 16.6. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Smart View sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and Test Files sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
