Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Budge World at none against Library Drops's shown. Budge World also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Library Drops's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
