Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Skoften at 4.5 against Deep Radio's 4.0. Skoften also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (43 vs 3). Deep Radio's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Skoften holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Skoften has 43 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 42% of Skoften's written reviews are positive against 50% of Deep Radio's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Skoften ships an update every 3 weeks, Deep Radio every 13 months. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
