Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Reactiv at none against PC Express's shown. Reactiv also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). PC Express's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
