Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Flip at none against Flip Skater's shown. Flip also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 72%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 13.0). Flip Skater's advantage is ratings volume (65K vs 267) and rating (4.7 vs 4.4). 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. Flip sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Flip Skater sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Flip Skater holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Flip Skater has 65K ratings behind it against 267, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of Flip's written reviews are positive against 72% of Flip Skater's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
