AR MultiPendulum allows you to interact with virtual objects directly with your hand instead of tapping their location on a touchscreen. It brings a mesmerizing multi-pendulum simulation into augmented reality. You interact with this simulation through hand movements and modify it through a holographic interface. Not only does this app bring augmented reality to a pendulum simulation, it is also the first app to simulate more than three pendulums. Additionally, by repurposing a VR headset for AR, this is the first app that gives users an affordable AR headset experience. If you have Google Cardboard, you can turn your iPhone into an AR headset that renders your surroundings in VR, based on images acquired using your device's camera. Some of the latest iPhones and iPads have a built-in LiDAR scanner, which allows a device to understand the 3D shape of its surroundings. On these devices, this app uses the scanner to more realistically render your surroundings and reconstruct the 3D position of your hand.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AR MultiPendulum at 5.0 against VR Funfair's 2.9. AR MultiPendulum also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 8) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). VR Funfair's advantage is ratings volume (63 vs 10) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
