Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SceneNow at none against Lovin.'s 2. SceneNow also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Lovin.'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Lovin. sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.49 per month. SceneNow asks for nothing beyond the download.
Lovin. holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 7 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of SceneNow's written reviews are positive against 97% of Lovin.'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
SceneNow ships an update every 10 days, Lovin. every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
