# PythonIDE vs Python Editor

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: PythonIDE at 16.2 against Python Editor's 18.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PythonIDE sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Python Editor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
