# Spy Hearing vs LoudPhone

The clearest difference is monetization model: LoudPhone at freemium against Spy Hearing's subscription. Spy Hearing's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (68 vs 6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spy Hearing sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and LoudPhone sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Spy Hearing holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spy Hearing has 68 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
