The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Alias at none against Элиас's 14. Alias also leads on ratings volume (184 vs 13) and chart position (#164 vs unranked). Элиас's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
