# Chat Archive vs Whatsify

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Whatsify at 12.0 against Chat Archive's 18.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chat Archive sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Whatsify sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
