Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Zen Garden 2 at none against Now冥想's 10. Zen Garden 2 also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13). Now冥想's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 43%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
