# Tap Tap Dash vs Spin

The clearest difference is ads: Spin at none against Tap Tap Dash's shown. Spin also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and rating (4.5 vs 4.3). Tap Tap Dash's advantage is ratings volume (9.2K vs 871). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Tap Tap Dash sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Spin sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spin holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tap Tap Dash has 9.2K ratings behind it against 871, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 77% of Tap Tap Dash's written reviews are positive against 81% of Spin's.

Tap Tap Dash ships an update every 2 months, Spin fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and October 1, 2026 respectively.
