Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TranceGuide at 5.0 against Sci's 3.9. TranceGuide also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Sci's advantage is ratings volume (14 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

TranceGuide holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sci has 14 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Sci ships an update every 4 months, TranceGuide every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
