Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: BRCVPA at 100% against Clever's 33%. BRCVPA also leads on rating (4.7 vs 2.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Clever's advantage is ratings volume (10K vs 9) and chart position (#36 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
BRCVPA holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Clever has 10K ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 100% of BRCVPA's written reviews are positive against 33% of Clever's.
BRCVPA ships an update every 3 weeks, Clever every 5 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and November 12, 2026 respectively.
