You've found Drum Journey, the first app for shamanic journeying. Shamanic journeying, as you probably already know, is a kind of insight meditation. It’s a spiritual practice that combines visualization with acoustic accompaniment, usually fast drumming or rattling. Drum Journey works like a timer; dial in the journey duration, set your options, and tap Start. Included in the app are several professionally-produced drum and rattle tracks, and you can also import your own from iTunes. Features: - flexible journey duration, from 5 minutes to an hour - choice of drumming styles (single, double, or with rattle) - adjustable tempo (slow, normal, and fast) - adjustable instrument volumes - high quality drumming tracks - works with AirPlay - Optimized graphics for iPhone Retina screens - light up the globe; share your location with other Drum Journey users For centuries, shamans have used journeying to gain insight and clarity. I was inspired to create this app while participating in the three year program of the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. Note: This app does not teach shamanic journey practices. Visit the Mindful Bear website for links to shamanic educators, books, and practitioners.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Agri VS at Free against Drum Journey's $1.99. Drum Journey's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months) and chart position (#142 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
