Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LV at none against Seashine's 6. LV also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.6). Seashine's advantage is ratings volume (4.9K vs 5). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LV holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seashine has 4.9K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of LV's written reviews are positive against 94% of Seashine's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

LV ships an update every 5 weeks, Seashine monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
