Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: FitShow at freemium against SPAX's subscription. FitShow also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 4 weeks). SPAX's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. FitShow sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and SPAX sells 26 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

FitShow holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FitShow has 5.4K ratings behind it against 345, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of FitShow's written reviews are positive against 47% of SPAX's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

FitShow ships an update every 8 days, SPAX every 4 weeks. Both last shipped on September 25, 2026.
