# Chalkee vs Paranormius

The clearest difference is ads: Paranormius at none against Chalkee's shown. Paranormius also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Chalkee sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Paranormius sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
