Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Space Shuttle AR at 1.1K against Imagine AR's 5. Space Shuttle AR also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4). Imagine AR's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 78%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Space Shuttle AR holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Space Shuttle AR has 1.1K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Space Shuttle AR's written reviews are positive against 100% of Imagine AR's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
