Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AKC.TV at 4.7 against Skymee's 1.8. AKC.TV also leads on review sentiment (47% vs 13%) and ratings volume (4K vs 103). Skymee's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
