Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AAA Auto Club at 4.8 against Reader Perks's 1.6. AAA Auto Club also leads on review sentiment (69% vs 33%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 29 months). Reader Perks's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
