Verdict
Plinkd and Spill both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Plinkd's written reviews are positive against 64% of Spill's. Plinkd also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Spill's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 11). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
