# 小星空 vs 星泡

The clearest difference is ads: 小星空 at none against 星泡's shown. 小星空 also leads on rating (2.6 vs 2.3) and ratings volume (18 vs 3). 星泡's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 72%). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 小星空 sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and 星泡 sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

小星空 holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 小星空 has 18 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 72% of 小星空's written reviews are positive against 80% of 星泡's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

小星空 ships an update every 3 weeks, 星泡 fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 12, 2026.
