# Mario vs TalkCast

The clearest difference is ads: Mario at none against TalkCast's shown. TalkCast's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Mario sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and TalkCast sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
