Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Beach TV at 93% against Beachfront Only's 50%. Beach TV also leads on device support (4 vs 2). Beachfront Only's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (102 vs 8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Beachfront Only holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Beachfront Only has 102 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 93% of Beach TV's written reviews are positive against 50% of Beachfront Only's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
