# CrossWeave vs Sem

The clearest difference is ads: CrossWeave at none against Sem's shown. Sem's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. CrossWeave sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Sem sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
