# Spin Off Magazine vs CoKnit

The clearest difference is monetization model: CoKnit at freemium against Spin Off Magazine's subscription. Spin Off Magazine's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spin Off Magazine sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $34.99 per year and CoKnit sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $29.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spin Off Magazine holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 76 and 37 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of Spin Off Magazine's written reviews are positive against 50% of CoKnit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
