Rift vs Viggle for putting yourself in a trend

Updated · Reviewed by The Rift team

Short answer

Viggle is a template-led app for moving a character, with thousands of templates, a free daily allowance and a live mode. Rift is an iPhone app where you share a video, tell Spark what to change, and tap Make, with the price on the button. Pick Viggle for meme and dance templates; pick Rift to remake a specific video you saw.

If you want to see yourself doing the move everyone is doing, Viggle and Rift are two honest options. They get there differently. Below is what we could check, the date, and who each suits. We make Rift, so we link every Viggle fact to its own pages.

Two ways to the same clip

Viggle describes its app as motion-controlled video: choose from its templates or bring your own, and put your character into them. Rift starts from a video you saw. You share it, Spark watches it, you say who stars, and Spark sets up a Draft.

Viggle’s App Store listing and its website show different plan prices today, so we do not print one. Look at the pricing screen in the app.

Pick Viggle if

Pick Rift if

Try the same clip in both

The fairest test is one source video, one clear photo, and both apps. Look at how well the moves are kept, whether your face holds up and what each shows you before you spend. Tell us what you find and we will fix this page if we got something wrong.

What we don’t say

We don’t claim Rift is cheaper, quicker or better. Rift shows its price on the Make button before you tap, and a Viggle number we can’t date and match would not be fair.

Questions people ask

Yes. Add each friend as a character once, from a few photos, then say who plays whom.
