# Copy My Data vs Contacts Sync

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Copy My Data at 16K against Contacts Sync's 20. Copy My Data also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Contacts Sync's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Copy My Data sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Contacts Sync sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
