# Text Assistant vs Fold

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Text Assistant at 16.0 against Fold's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Text Assistant sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Fold sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
