TSight turns your iPhone's LiDAR scanner into a sense of touch for the space around you. Point your phone at anything β a wall, a table, a doorway β and feel its distance through vibration. The closer the object, the stronger the pulse. An audio tone and spoken readout are available for situations where haptics alone aren't enough. WHAT IT DOES β’ Real-time haptic feedback β distance becomes vibration intensity β’ Spoken distance on demand β double-tap anywhere to hear the exact measurement β’ Audio tone mode β frequency rises as objects get closer β’ Edge detection β a distinct pulse marks depth boundaries like table edges and steps β’ Beacon mode β lock onto a point in space and track it as you move β’ Depth map β an optional colour overlay shows the full depth field at a glance DESIGNED FOR ACCESSIBILITY TSight is built for people with visual impairments and anyone who wants to sense their environment without looking. Every feature is fully accessible with VoiceOver, with custom actions for every gesture and spoken feedback at every step. WORKS ON IPHONE WITH LIDAR iPhone 12 Pro and later.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Generic Object Detection at none against TSight's 4. TSight's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
