# KRASH vs Lucive

The clearest difference is update cadence: Lucive at every 10 days against KRASH's every 8 months. KRASH's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KRASH sells 26 one-off in-app purchases and Lucive sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

KRASH ships an update every 8 months, Lucive every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
