# Superimpose+ vs Background Transparent

The clearest difference is rating: Superimpose+ at 4.8 against Background Transparent's 3.0. Superimpose+ also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 1). Background Transparent's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Superimpose+ sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month and Background Transparent sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
