# Dawn vs Shine

The clearest difference is ads: Shine at none against Dawn's shown. Shine also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dawn sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Shine sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
