Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Skydive LogBook at none against Skyduck's 3. Skydive LogBook also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). Skyduck's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (175 vs 10). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Skyduck sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Skydive LogBook asks for nothing beyond the download.
Skyduck holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Skyduck has 175 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Skydive LogBook's written reviews are positive against 80% of Skyduck's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Skydive LogBook ships an update every 10 days, Skyduck every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
