# Trip.com vs SmartTriip

The clearest difference is ads: SmartTriip at none against Trip.com's shown. Trip.com's advantage is chart position (#27 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
