Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Guavo at none against Spot's 2. Guavo also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%). Spot's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.0) and chart position (#59 vs unranked). On price, ratings volume, ads 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. Spot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $15.00 per month. Guavo asks for nothing beyond the download.
Spot holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 20 and 17 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Guavo's written reviews are positive against 75% of Spot's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Guavo ships an update every 2 weeks, Spot every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 28, 2026 respectively.
