Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Cascade at 4.6 against Randomize List's 3.9. Cascade also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (280 vs 22). Randomize List's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
