# Cross Locked vs SPOT IT GO!

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cross Locked at 100% against SPOT IT GO!'s 41%. Cross Locked also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). SPOT IT GO!'s advantage is ratings volume (435 vs 9) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Cross Locked sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month and SPOT IT GO! sells 28 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
