# Reading Eggs vs Spiders Augmented Reality

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spiders Augmented Reality at 100% against Reading Eggs's 55%. Spiders Augmented Reality also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Reading Eggs's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (7.3K vs 2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Reading Eggs sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Spiders Augmented Reality asks for nothing beyond the download.

Reading Eggs holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Reading Eggs has 7.3K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Reading Eggs's written reviews are positive against 100% of Spiders Augmented Reality's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
