Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: DiverLog+ at 2.5 against DiveStory+'s 1.0. DiverLog+ also leads on ratings volume (111 vs 1). DiveStory+'s advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 19%) and monetization model (free vs freemium). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases 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

DiverLog+ holds the better App Store score, 2.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DiverLog+ has 111 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 19% of DiverLog+'s written reviews are positive against 50% of DiveStory+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DiverLog+ ships an update every 5 weeks, DiveStory+ every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 4, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
