# KilnNote vs Ruten

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: KilnNote at 13.0 against Ruten's 17.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KilnNote sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Ruten sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
