Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Seashine at 4.8 against Armada.io's 4.0. Seashine also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4.9K vs 1). Armada.io's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. Seashine sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Armada.io sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Seashine holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seashine has 4.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of Seashine's written reviews are positive against 100% of Armada.io's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Seashine ships an update monthly, Armada.io every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 6, 2026 respectively.
