Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Island IQ at Free against EchoAccess's $2.99. Island IQ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months). EchoAccess's advantage is chart position (#147 vs unranked) and ratings volume (8 vs 2). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
