# Clockmaker vs ShapeDrop

The clearest difference is chart position: Clockmaker at #100 against ShapeDrop's unranked. Clockmaker also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Clockmaker sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and ShapeDrop sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
