# Dot vs VsSpy

The clearest difference is rating: Dot at 4.5 against VsSpy's 3.9. Dot also leads on ads (none vs shown). VsSpy's advantage is review sentiment (76% vs 67%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Dot sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and VsSpy sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Dot holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.9. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 63 and 54 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 67% of Dot's written reviews are positive against 76% of VsSpy's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 23, 2026 respectively.
