Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Starkli at 4.6 against Bubbleatoric's 3.7. Starkli also leads on review sentiment (73% vs 33%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 44 months). Bubbleatoric's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
