Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sembl at none against Rings's shown. Sembl also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (21 vs 3). Rings's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.2). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
