# Find Hidden Objects vs Spot 5 Differences

The clearest difference is rating: Spot 5 Differences at 4.7 against Find Hidden Objects's 4.5. Spot 5 Differences also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Find Hidden Objects's advantage is chart position (#151 vs unranked). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Find Hidden Objects sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and Spot 5 Differences sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spot 5 Differences holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 59K and 52K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Find Hidden Objects's written reviews are positive against 77% of Spot 5 Differences's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
