# Spell It vs Snap Spell

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Spell It at 3.9K against Snap Spell's 3. Snap Spell's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spell It sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Snap Spell sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Snap Spell holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spell It has 3.9K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two.
