Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Scuba Diving Computer Oceanic+ at none against Fishing Points's shown. Fishing Points's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (31K vs 4.6K). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fishing Points sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Scuba Diving Computer Oceanic+ sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Fishing Points holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Fishing Points has 31K ratings behind it against 4.6K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 65% of Fishing Points's written reviews are positive against 69% of Scuba Diving Computer Oceanic+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Fishing Points ships an update every 3 weeks, Scuba Diving Computer Oceanic+ every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
