Verdict

The call

Spy and Insight both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 61% of Spy's written reviews are positive against 38% of Insight's. Spy also leads on ratings volume (10K vs 1.5K). Insight's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
