# Transcriba vs Lilypad

The clearest difference is monetization model: Lilypad at free with in-app purchases against Transcriba's subscription. Transcriba's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Transcriba sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Lilypad sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
