Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Dropset at free with in-app purchases against Spotr's subscription. Dropset also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 60%). Spotr's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 days). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Dropset sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Spotr sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Spotr holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spotr has 626 ratings behind it against 96, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Dropset's written reviews are positive against 60% of Spotr's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Dropset ships an update every 4 days, Spotr every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on September 14, 2026 and September 22, 2026 respectively.
