Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: divelogs at free against SSI App's free with in-app purchases. SSI App's advantage is ratings volume (8.5K vs 1) and review sentiment (84% vs 67%). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

divelogs holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: SSI App has 8.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 84% of SSI App's written reviews are positive against 67% of divelogs's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

SSI App ships an update every 3 weeks, divelogs every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 9, 2026 and November 4, 2026 respectively.
