Dumava looks at your photograph and tells you what it sees, your coffee cup, your palm, the flame in front of you, the clouds above you. PHOTOGRAPH IT, DON'T TYPE IT Take a picture of your Turkish coffee cup. Dumava finds the symbols in that specific cup, draws a numbered box around each one and explains what it found. It is reading your cup, not printing a generic paragraph. Eight of our readings work this way: coffee cup, palm, tea leaf, flame, sky, wax casting, evil eye oil and face reading. 41 READINGS IN THE CATALOGUE, MOST OF THEM RARE - Turkish coffee cup reading (tasseography) and tea leaf reading - Lead pouring and wax casting, Anatolian traditions - Palm reading, flame reading, sky reading - Katina, Lenormand, Spanish cards, Tarot de Marseille, Belline, Vera Sibilla - Geomancy (remil), Abjad numerology, rune casting, I Ching - Saju, Bazi, Omikuji, Kyusei Kigaku, Zi Wei Dou Shu, face reading - Egg cleansing and evil eye oil - Dream interpretation, the ring pendulum, Smorfia, song readings You see the ones that belong to your language; English opens 17 of them. Most of these are hard to find in an English-language app at all. IT REMEMBERS YOU A second reading builds on your first instead of starting from zero. Ask follow-up questions about any reading in chat, or have it read aloud. TALK TO A READER Premium members can hold a live voice conversation with distinct reader characters. 11 LANGUAGES, NOT ONE SET TRANSLATED Turkish, English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Greek, Arabic, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. Each language gets the readings that belong to its own culture. Dumava is for entertainment. Nothing here is medical, legal or financial advice.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Second Life at none against Dumava's shown. Dumava's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
