# Decibel vs Spirio

The clearest difference is device support: Decibel at 3 against Spirio's 1. Decibel also leads on iOS requirement (13.1 vs 26.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Decibel sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Spirio sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
