Discover something new in someone familiar. Or in someone you just met. MiddleSpot finds what two people actually have in common, then hands them the conversation worth having about it. FOUR WAYS TO MEET Scan their code across a table. Read a code out loud when a camera won't do. Send a link and play through it together on a call. Or start a table and let a whole group join with one code. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT Not a verdict — a deck you move through together. A caricature of the two of you. An opinion worth arguing with. A turn each in the hot seat. And then the thing you have in common, and a question only the two of you could be asked. DECKS OF YOUR OWN Curated sets of questions for when you are already sitting together and just want somewhere to start. And a crystal ball, for a read on yourself. YOUR ANSWERS STAY YOURS Your code carries no answers. The comparison happens on our servers and returns only what the two of you share — neither phone ever receives the other's writing. No photos. No feed. No followers. Nothing to scroll past. EVERY CONNECTION REMEMBERED Encounters keep the place, the weather, the time of day, and what actually happened — who was in the hot seat, what you guessed before you knew. MiddleSpot is for the moment just after "nice to meet you." MiddleSpot Premium is an optional auto-renewable subscription: • Annual — $19.99/year, with the first 2 weeks free • Monthly — $3.99/month Prices shown are for the United States and vary by region.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MiddleSpot at none against Clockout's shown. Clockout's advantage is chart position (#78 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
