# Big Days vs Cast and Count

The clearest difference is ads: Cast and Count at none against Big Days's shown. Big Days's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Big Days sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Cast and Count sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
