Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Unpacked 360 View at weekly against RetroPod's every 12 months. Unpacked 360 View also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 16.0). RetroPod's advantage is rating (3.7 vs 3.3) and ratings volume (34 vs 10). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
