Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Sjónvarp Símans holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Sjónvarp Símans has 37 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 79% of Nova Iceland's written reviews are positive against 17% of Sjónvarp Símans's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Nova Iceland ships an update every 4 weeks, Sjónvarp Símans every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 21, 2026 respectively.
