Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sift Heads at fortnightly against Air Offense Command's every 4 months. Sift Heads also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Sift Heads sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and Air Offense Command sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Sift Heads holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.4K and 925 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 77% of Sift Heads's written reviews are positive against 79% of Air Offense Command's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Sift Heads ships an update fortnightly, Air Offense Command every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
