Verdict
The clearest difference is price: OOFSkate at Free against Dance's $2.99. OOFSkate also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.7) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). Dance's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (9.3 vs 17.6). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
