# Pluckbow vs Contour

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Contour at 16.0 against Pluckbow's 18.1. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

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