Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: OCO at every 5 weeks against Humbug's every 12 months. OCO also leads on ratings volume (2.4K vs 375). Humbug's advantage is review sentiment (93% vs 73%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. OCO sells 8 one-off in-app purchases and Humbug sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
