# Space Decor vs Match Cafe

Space Decor and Match Cafe both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 73% of Space Decor's written reviews are positive against 40% of Match Cafe's. Match Cafe's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (3.9K vs 620). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Space Decor sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and Match Cafe sells 14 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Space Decor against 4.8 for Match Cafe. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Match Cafe has 3.9K ratings behind it against 620, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 73% of Space Decor's written reviews are positive against 40% of Match Cafe's.

Space Decor ships an update every 7 months, Match Cafe every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
