# Spark vs Shapewise

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Spark at 2.8K against Shapewise's 1. Spark also leads on chart position (#118 vs unranked). Shapewise's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spark sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Shapewise sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Shapewise 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 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Spark ships an update weekly, Shapewise every 2 days. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
