Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dropout at 99% against WELLCOM's 25%. Dropout also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 35 months) and ratings volume (77K vs 3). WELLCOM's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
