Verdict

The call

MyPatch and UCO Benefits both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of UCO Benefits's written reviews are positive against 29% of MyPatch's. UCO Benefits also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). MyPatch's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
