# Hue Lights vs SecuView

The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Hue Lights at 11.0 against SecuView's 15.0. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Hue Lights sells 9 one-off in-app purchases and SecuView sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
