# BrainMaxx vs Sparq

The clearest difference is ads: Sparq at none against BrainMaxx's shown. Sparq also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BrainMaxx sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Sparq sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $8.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
