Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Velit at every 3 weeks against EasyStart Web's every 10 months. Velit also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (33% vs 16%). EasyStart Web's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
