The clearest difference is update cadence: Psylo at every 9 days against SnowHaze's every 3 months. SnowHaze's advantage is review sentiment (77% vs 62%) and ratings volume (533 vs 43). On price, rating, ads 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. SnowHaze sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Psylo sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
SnowHaze holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4.
