Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Buffer at 4.7 against GetSpaces's 2.3. Buffer also leads on ratings volume (34K vs 3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). GetSpaces's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 12) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Buffer holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.3.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Buffer ships an update every 5 days, GetSpaces every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 2, 2026 and September 27, 2026 respectively.
