Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PaperVault at 100% against ASUS Router's 43%. PaperVault also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5). ASUS Router's advantage is ratings volume (64K vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
