Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bend the Light at 100% against SEN's 56%. Bend the Light also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3). SEN's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
