Do you have what it takes to take manual control of a vertical profiling float and pilot it mission success? Hit the target depth and hold within the required zone for each of four phases, while carefully adjusting for a neutral buoyancy point that changes with each new dive. Inspired by the Float mission task in the MATE ROV underwater robotics competition (www.materovcompetition.org).

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Float Simulator at none against Crab Life's 38. Float Simulator also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Crab Life's advantage is ratings volume (3.1K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
