# Minimalist Progress vs Countdown

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Countdown at 17.0 against Minimalist Progress's 26.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Minimalist Progress sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per month and Countdown sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
