# Memory vs Spot 5 Differences

Memory and Spot 5 Differences both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of Memory's written reviews are positive against 77% of Spot 5 Differences's. Spot 5 Differences's advantage is ratings volume (52K vs 10K) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Memory sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Spot 5 Differences sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
