Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Eclipse Meditations at free with in-app purchases against TIDE's subscription. Eclipse Meditations also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 76%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). TIDE's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (8.3K vs 26). On price, rating and in-app purchases 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. TIDE sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Eclipse Meditations sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for TIDE against 4.8 for Eclipse Meditations. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: TIDE has 8.3K ratings behind it against 26, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 76% of TIDE's written reviews are positive against 88% of Eclipse Meditations's.
TIDE ships an update weekly, Eclipse Meditations fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and June 10, 2026 respectively.
