# Red Onion vs V

The clearest difference is price: V at Free against Red Onion's $1.99. Red Onion's advantage is chart position (#150 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.2). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

V is free to download; Red Onion costs $1.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
