Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hypnothera at 83% against SelfHypnosis.com's 31%. Hypnothera also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 24 months). SelfHypnosis.com's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
