# Note vs Alcove

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Alcove at 17.4 against Note's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Note sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Alcove sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
