Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Hexoboy at 4.7 against Shape.Me's 3.0. Hexoboy also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 50%) and ratings volume (47 vs 2). Shape.Me's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
