# Guest Assistant vs Spacebar Memory

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Guest Assistant at none against Spacebar Memory's 4. Guest Assistant also leads on ads (none vs shown). Spacebar Memory's advantage is ratings volume (13 vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spacebar Memory sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $5.00 per month. Guest Assistant asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Guest Assistant against 4.9 for Spacebar Memory. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spacebar Memory has 13 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
