# Spades Royale vs UKNO

The clearest difference is rating: Spades Royale at 4.8 against UKNO's 4.0. Spades Royale also leads on ratings volume (176K vs 4) and chart position (#54 vs unranked). UKNO's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spades Royale sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and UKNO sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spades Royale holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spades Royale has 176K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Spades Royale's written reviews are positive against 100% of UKNO's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
