# Thread vs Koala Forest

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Koala Forest at none against Thread's 1. Koala Forest also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Thread's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

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