# Arcnova vs Emerald Case

The clearest difference is ads: Arcnova at none against Emerald Case's shown. Emerald Case's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Arcnova sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Emerald Case sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
