Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Aret Driver at none against Flight Board's 6. Aret Driver also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Flight Board's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (2K vs 1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
