Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: LinkTap at 3.6 against NthGrow's 2.4. LinkTap also leads on review sentiment (56% vs 33%) and ratings volume (48 vs 8). NthGrow's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
