Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Livify at Free against 什么时辰's $0.99. Livify also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 90%). 什么时辰's advantage is ratings volume (20 vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On rating, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Livify is free to download; 什么时辰 costs $0.99 up front. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Livify holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 什么时辰 has 20 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of 什么时辰's written reviews are positive against 100% of Livify's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 27, 2026 and September 29, 2026 respectively.
