# Amazon Shopping vs El Corte Inglés

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: El Corte Inglés at none against Amazon Shopping's 4. El Corte Inglés also leads on ads (none vs shown). Amazon Shopping's advantage is ratings volume (8.5M vs 660) and chart position (#8 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Amazon Shopping sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. El Corte Inglés asks for nothing beyond the download.

Amazon Shopping holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Amazon Shopping has 8.5M ratings behind it against 660, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 23% of Amazon Shopping's written reviews are positive against 21% of El Corte Inglés's.

Amazon Shopping ships an update fortnightly, El Corte Inglés every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on November 11, 2026 and November 7, 2026 respectively.
