# PDF Pro vs PDF Reader

The clearest difference is chart position: PDF Reader at #164 against PDF Pro's unranked. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PDF Pro sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and PDF Reader sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $14.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
