Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iLONDA at 4.7 against ReefBeat's 2.6. iLONDA also leads on review sentiment (39% vs 17%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). ReefBeat's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 341). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
