# CloudGear vs Minnow Run

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Minnow Run at none against CloudGear's 3. CloudGear's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (569 vs 2). On price, rating and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CloudGear sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Minnow Run asks for nothing beyond the download.
