Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: aTwist at free with in-app purchases against Channel 3 Studios's subscription. aTwist also leads on ratings volume (61 vs 2) and chart position (#191 vs unranked). Channel 3 Studios's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price and in-app purchases 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. Channel 3 Studios sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month and aTwist sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Channel 3 Studios holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: aTwist has 61 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
