# BugScan vs Insect ID

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

Both are free to download. BugScan sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Insect ID sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
