Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
SpectraShow holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.8.

Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Magic Home Pro's written reviews are positive against 0% of SpectraShow's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Magic Home Pro ships an update every 2 months, SpectraShow every 4 months. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
