Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: A2 at none against Grammatisch's 6. A2 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 18.0). Grammatisch's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 24 months) and ratings volume (720 vs 3). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
