# Spider Solitaire vs Solitaire Uni

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spider Solitaire at 59% against Solitaire Uni's 25%. Spider Solitaire also leads on ratings volume (862K vs 816) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Solitaire Uni's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spider Solitaire sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Solitaire Uni sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spider Solitaire holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spider Solitaire has 862K ratings behind it against 816, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 59% of Spider Solitaire's written reviews are positive against 25% of Solitaire Uni's.

Spider Solitaire ships an update monthly, Solitaire Uni every 10 days. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 13, 2026 respectively.
