The clearest difference is review sentiment: GCU Student App at 100% against SEAtS Mobile's 5%. SEAtS Mobile's advantage is rating (2.0 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 11 months). 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.
SEAtS Mobile holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of GCU Student App's written reviews are positive against 5% of SEAtS Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
GCU Student App ships an update every 11 months, SEAtS Mobile every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 3, 2026 and November 8, 2026 respectively.
