Hokoniwa Snap AR is an augmented reality character interaction app (not a game, but it's fun) derived from Manasis Refrain, where you can transport the students of Theodric Academy to your side to spend fun time together through Mana's Energy. Unlike the romantic and exciting adventures of Manasis Refrain, with Hokoniwa Snap AR you'll learn more about the girls and take them to your school, dormitory, company, etc. You'll also be able to travel with them and record every moment you spend with them in pictures and videos. You can also record every moment you spend with the girls with pictures and short videos. Accompanying you, you are no longer alone. In Hokoniwa Snap AR, you can talk and interact with the maidens and unlock more of their skills in the present world as their intimacy increases. Oh yeah, sometimes when you're stressed out and it makes Mana unstable, an otherworldly Duck Pear monster will come to reality, so destroy Duck Pear with the maidens! Stay with you and take a journey of you and the teenage girls! You can summon the teenage girls out at any time and place to accompany you for shopping, climbing or beach sunbathing, and the beauty-loving teenage girls will also ask you to take a picture of her and make a Vlog, which you can upload to your social platform if you want. During your travels, and also because of Mana's energy, in the present world you will also stumble upon otherworldly portals and see what is happening at Theoderick Academy at this time. Oh yeah, if you get the approval of the students, you will also get the PRO privilege to shoot a funny sitcom with the girls through the settings of each animation point, and become the recognized drama director of Theoderick Academy!

HoloKit X is a simple, affordable accessory for iPhone that unlocks the world of stereoscopic AR and allows people to Dream Together in new realities. Download the HoloKit X app, follow the simple instructions to pair iPhone, try out a few of the included realities, and then get ready to transport into a new reality to become a wizard or dragon hunter and play with friends. The HoloKit X app includes all content, a series of realities, to demonstrate the capabilities and wonder of stereoscopic AR, experience immersive art dreams created by world-renewed digital artists, and battles with wizards and dragons by casting spells. HoloKit X’s killer feature is face-to-face multiplayer, which allows friends to battle together or against each other as wizards, by casting spells, and hunt down and battle dragons together. This has never been done before with AR and is now available for anybody to use. The HoloKit X app also enables others, with their own iPhone or iPad, to Dream Together with their friends using a unique spectator mode feature where battles, dragon hunts, and immersive art experiences can be viewed in real-time from a second screen. Simply download the app and await a pair request from a friend or friends with HoloKit X (using AirDrop). The HoloKit X app, once iPhone is docked and paired, includes simple controls to switch between realities. The included Apple Watch app enables motion control within HoloKit X realities with any object and using the built-in gyroscope. Now any object you want can be your wand to cast spells in these new worlds and shared experiences. The app also integrates with the Health app on iPhone and Apple Watch, allowing dreamers to track their activity and achieve fitness goals through individual battles and with their friends.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Aria Snapshot at 5.0 against HoloKit's 4.0. Aria Snapshot also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). HoloKit's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
