SatPathFinder is an application for visualizing satellite orbits. Several views are available for this. The most important data is listed in a table. Overflight times can be calculated for the next seven days. There is a special option for radio amateurs to calculate sked times. This is the period of time during which a satellite can be observed from two locations at the same time. The iPhone or iPad serves as an aid for manual antenna alignment, using the internal sensors.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Online at Free against SatPathFinder's $2.99. Online also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). SatPathFinder's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 15 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
