# VirtualFriend vs Videlyx

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

Both are free to download. VirtualFriend sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Videlyx sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
