# HangoutMan vs Thread

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HangoutMan at none against Thread's 1. Thread's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Thread sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. HangoutMan asks for nothing beyond the download.
