# Spin vs Reflex

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Reflex at 100% against Spin's 51%. Reflex also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.2). Spin's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (192 vs 8). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Spin sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Reflex sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Reflex holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spin has 192 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 51% of Spin's written reviews are positive against 100% of Reflex's.

Spin ships an update every 13 months, Reflex every 35 months. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
