# Read.md vs BuilderCam

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: BuilderCam at 13.0 against Read.md's 15.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Read.md sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per year and BuilderCam sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $49.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
