Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: XSW UFO at 3.0 against Rx Drone's 2.4. XSW UFO also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 20%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). Rx Drone's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (138 vs 11). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
