# ScareNetwork vs SPI

The clearest difference is rating: ScareNetwork at 4.4 against SPI's 3.4. ScareNetwork also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 58%) and device support (4 vs 2). SPI's advantage is monetization model (free vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ScareNetwork sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and SPI sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ScareNetwork holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SPI has 127 ratings behind it against 25, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of ScareNetwork's written reviews are positive against 58% of SPI's.

ScareNetwork ships an update every 2 months, SPI every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on July 3, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
