# Seabeard vs 宅时光

The clearest difference is rating: Seabeard at 4.7 against 宅时光's 4.0. Seabeard also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 10) and review sentiment (72% vs 49%). 宅时光's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Seabeard sells 10 one-off in-app purchases and 宅时光 sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Seabeard holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Seabeard has 3.2K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of Seabeard's written reviews are positive against 49% of 宅时光's.

Seabeard ships an update every 2 months, 宅时光 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
