Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Undersea at none against Splash's 10. Undersea also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (96% vs 78%). Splash's advantage is ratings volume (6.4K vs 99) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, monetization model and device support 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. Splash sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Undersea asks for nothing beyond the download.
Splash holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Splash has 6.4K ratings behind it against 99, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 78% of Splash's written reviews are positive against 96% of Undersea's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
