Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PocketScape at 100% against Ship Up's 50%. PocketScape also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 48 months). Ship Up's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. PocketScape sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Ship Up asks for nothing beyond the download.
PocketScape holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: PocketScape has 11 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Ship Up ships an update every 48 months, PocketScape fortnightly. Both last shipped on October 24, 2026.
