# Showmars vs Spin the Night

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Showmars at none against Spin the Night's 5. Showmars also leads on ratings volume (8.9K vs 90) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). Spin the Night's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spin the Night sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Showmars asks for nothing beyond the download.

Showmars holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Showmars has 8.9K ratings behind it against 90, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 74% of Showmars's written reviews are positive against 76% of Spin the Night's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Showmars ships an update every 5 months, Spin the Night weekly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
