Bluehour brings you a single beautiful city skyline every day, photographed during the blue hour — the brief stretch of twilight when the sky turns deep luminous blue and the city lights begin to come on. It is the most photogenic time in any city, and it now has a quiet daily home on your phone. Each morning a new skyline arrives. You open the app and see Singapore tonight, or Reykjavík at dawn, or Doha glowing across the bay. A short note tells you the tallest building, the year it was completed, the photographer who captured the shot. Save it, share it, or set it as your wallpaper. Beyond the daily skyline, Bluehour has a living atlas of cities. Tap the map and land anywhere — Mumbai at dusk, Toronto at twilight, Cape Town in the soft glow before sunrise. Browse by continent, by tallest building, by what you have already seen. Your collection grows quietly as you wander. The most unusual part of Bluehour is the Twilight Now tab. The blue hour is happening somewhere on Earth at every moment of the day. Sun positions are computed precisely from your device clock and the chosen cities, then the app shows you exactly which ones are in blue hour, golden hour, or pre-dawn light right at this second, with a countdown of how long that light will last. Open the app at lunchtime to catch Sydney winding down its evening blue hour. Open after dinner to watch Reykjavík just entering its long winter twilight. A small live signal from cities across the world. Save a skyline and it lands in your personal gallery. The wallpaper rotation, if you turn it on, quietly drops a new view from your collection into your Photos library each morning so you can refresh your lock screen with a tap. Bluehour is a quiet companion. A new skyline waiting whenever you happen to look.
Waypoint Zero

Waypoint Zero turns navigation into an interactive skill challenge. Read the map, use the compass, calculate your bearing, estimate distance, plan your route, and reach the correct waypoint. Each scenario gives you a starting position and a destination. Study the terrain, identify landmarks, choose your direction, and navigate toward your target. Your final position is then compared with the waypoint to show how accurately you navigated. MASTER NAVIGATION SKILLS Learn compass basics and cardinal directions Calculate bearings and azimuths Read maps and identify landmarks Estimate and calculate distances Plan routes between waypoints Correct your course after going off track PROGRESSIVE CHALLENGES Start with guided exercises and gradually take on scenarios with fewer hints and more complex routes. Navigate through forests, mountains, checkpoints, rescue locations, and other fictional environments. SEE YOUR REAL RESULT After each attempt, review your planned route, actual route, bearing error, distance traveled, final position, and distance from the target. TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Improve your navigation accuracy, complete missions, unlock achievements, and track statistics such as average deviation, bearing accuracy, total distance, and best results. Start at zero. Find your way.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Waypoint Zero at none against Bluehour's shown. On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
