# POPS vs Chromatubes

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Chromatubes at 13.0 against POPS's 17.5. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. POPS sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Chromatubes sells 7 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
