Verdict

The call

Nike and Valabasas both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 58% of Valabasas's written reviews are positive against 25% of Nike's. Valabasas also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Nike's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (1.7M vs 9.1K). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
