Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Adderpad at none against Scores's shown. Adderpad also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 65%) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.0). Scores's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (120 vs 30). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
