# Phase Spur vs Tiny Putt

The clearest difference is ads: Phase Spur at none against Tiny Putt's shown. Phase Spur also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Tiny Putt's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Phase Spur sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Tiny Putt sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Phase Spur against 5.0 for Tiny Putt. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tiny Putt has 9 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.

Phase Spur ships an update every 6 months, Tiny Putt every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
