# ASHA vs Method

The clearest difference is ads: ASHA at none against Method's shown. ASHA also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ASHA sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Method sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 days. Both last shipped on October 15, 2026.
