# iSpyMobile vs SpyTracker

The clearest difference is rating: SpyTracker at 4.5 against iSpyMobile's 2.8. SpyTracker also leads on ratings volume (808 vs 30) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.4). iSpyMobile's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (32% vs 19%). On price, update cadence, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SpyTracker sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days. iSpyMobile asks for nothing beyond the download.

SpyTracker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SpyTracker has 808 ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 32% of iSpyMobile's written reviews are positive against 19% of SpyTracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and September 19, 2026 respectively.
