Open Rainfall and you're looking down at a dark, still pond at night — and it's raining. Every drop falls with real depth: far rain drifts soft and slow, near rain streaks fast and bright. Where each drop lands, a ripple opens and spreads across the water. Let them overlap and the ripples interfere, weaving a living lacework of light. This isn't a loop of stock footage — it's a living scene you can touch. Reach in and stir the water Tap anywhere to send rings blooming from your fingertip, each with a soft splash. Drag across the surface and ripples trail behind your finger. The rain is yours to play with. Tilt the sky Lean your phone and the rain leans with you, slanting on the wind. Give it a shake and a gust sweeps through, then settles. It feels alive in your hand. Thunder in the distance Now and then the sky flashes, and a beat later thunder rolls in — never the same twice. Close your eyes and you're far from everything. Make it your rain Choose a mood — Night Rain, Ivory, or Molten Gold — or set your own colors for the rain, ripples, and sky. Dial in the weather: speed, density, length, thickness, direction. Thin drizzle or a driving storm, it's yours. Built to just… breathe No ads. No subscription. No sign-up. Unlock everything once and it's yours forever. Battery-friendly modes stay cool on any device, and the screen stays awake so the rain never stops. Rain, the way it should feel. Quiet, endless, and entirely yours.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Rainfall at 5.0 against ARvid Augmented Reality's 4.6. Rainfall also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). ARvid Augmented Reality's advantage is ratings volume (7.9K vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
