# Startup Dev Story vs Garage

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Startup Dev Story at none against Garage's 4. Startup Dev Story also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Garage's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Garage sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Startup Dev Story asks for nothing beyond the download.
