Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Spring Shuffle at 100% against Pool Words's 75%. Spring Shuffle also leads on ratings volume (22 vs 3). Pool Words's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pool Words sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Spring Shuffle sells 4 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pool Words holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Spring Shuffle has 22 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 75% of Pool Words's written reviews are positive against 100% of Spring Shuffle's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
