# ArcSite vs SecondFloor

The clearest difference is rating: ArcSite at 4.7 against SecondFloor's 4.2. ArcSite also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (9.3K vs 17). SecondFloor's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 45%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. ArcSite sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and SecondFloor sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $24.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ArcSite holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: ArcSite has 9.3K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 45% of ArcSite's written reviews are positive against 60% of SecondFloor's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

ArcSite ships an update weekly, SecondFloor fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
