Earth Moves is a watch that reconnects you to the planet you live on. Most clocks tell you what time it is. Earth Moves tells you where you are — in the daily turn of a living, rotating planet. At its heart is the Earth Watch: a 24-hour watch face seen from above the North Pole, the view an astronaut sees from space. Noon sits at the top, midnight at the bottom, and a live globe shows day and night falling across the world in real time, calculated from your location. At a glance you know not just the time, but whether you stand in light or darkness, and where you are in relation to the Sun. FEATURES - Two watch faces — the original Earth Watch in deep space, and Earth Watch Classic in warm watercolour and ink. Swipe between them. - Live day and night — a real-time polar view of Earth, with the Sun, and the current phase of the Moon. - Empathy timezones — choose places around the world you carry with you, and see their local time alongside your own, right on the watch. - Solar System Calendar — watch the planets orbit the Sun, and follow a year of astronomical events: eclipses, meteor showers, solstices, equinoxes, full moons and more. Tap the Sun to zoom into your year. - Your own events — add the dates that matter to you and see them placed on Earth's orbit. - The Concept — a short journey into why the Earth is the original clock, and how to read it. Earth Moves uses your location to show accurate time and sky information wherever you are. Everything is calculated on your device, and your location never leaves your phone. Official partner with The Planetary Society. Connecting space, nature and time.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Earth Moves at Free against iFTx's $1.99. iFTx's advantage is chart position (#148 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
