Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Dopamining at every 3 days against HabitShare's monthly. Dopamining also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 86%). HabitShare's advantage is ratings volume (667 vs 4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
