Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Nooka Space at 5.0 against Spaces's 3.4. Nooka Space also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 7%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Spaces's advantage is ratings volume (118 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
