# Match Collector vs Drift

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Match Collector at 15.0 against Drift's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Match Collector sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Drift sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
