# Popcorn Pop! vs SpiralGear

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SpiralGear at 100% against Popcorn Pop!'s 48%. SpiralGear also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1). Popcorn Pop!'s advantage is rating (4.8 vs 2.7) and ratings volume (2.7K vs 3). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Popcorn Pop! sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. SpiralGear asks for nothing beyond the download.

Popcorn Pop! holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Popcorn Pop! has 2.7K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 48% of Popcorn Pop!'s written reviews are positive against 100% of SpiralGear's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
