Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Aquatic Light Smart Controller at none against Reefi's 3. Aquatic Light Smart Controller also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.1). Reefi's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
