# SpinVid vs Syn

The clearest difference is ads: SpinVid at none against Syn's shown. Syn's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and review sentiment (86% vs 74%). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SpinVid sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and Syn sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.00 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
