Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Umtu at 100% against Adventist Dating's 7%. Umtu also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.7) and ads (none vs shown). Adventist Dating's advantage is ratings volume (60 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model 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. Adventist Dating sells 15 in-app purchases, starting at $19.95 per 7 days and Umtu sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Umtu holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 1.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Adventist Dating has 60 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 7% of Adventist Dating's written reviews are positive against 100% of Umtu's.
Adventist Dating ships an update every 5 months, Umtu every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
