Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PRIMA App at none against Spot's 2. PRIMA App also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Spot's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and chart position (#46 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
