Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Primera Plus at every 3 weeks against Flecha Roja's every 7 months. Primera Plus also leads on review sentiment (49% vs 20%). Flecha Roja's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
