# AnyCompress vs File Compressor

The clearest difference is rating: File Compressor at 5.0 against AnyCompress's 3.0. File Compressor also leads on ratings volume (10 vs 2). AnyCompress's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 16.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. AnyCompress sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and File Compressor sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
