Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Anemoia at 210 against NY2C's 4. Anemoia also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). NY2C's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
