# Spark vs Deeply

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Spark at 2.8K against Deeply's 4. Spark also leads on chart position (#133 vs unranked). Deeply's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spark sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Deeply sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Deeply holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spark has 2.8K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 93% of Spark's written reviews are positive against 100% of Deeply's.

Spark ships an update weekly, Deeply every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
