Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iMotion at 4.5 against itSeez3D's 3.7. iMotion also leads on review sentiment (73% vs 33%) and ratings volume (2.9K vs 38). itSeez3D's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
