# Thread vs Pixel Tale Tiles

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pixel Tale Tiles at none against Thread's 1. Thread's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Thread sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Pixel Tale Tiles asks for nothing beyond the download.
