# PixelCafe vs Coffee Smarts

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Coffee Smarts at 16.0 against PixelCafe's 18.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PixelCafe sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Coffee Smarts sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
