Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PS Remember at 100% against ResearchGate's 46%. PS Remember also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). ResearchGate's advantage is ratings volume (15K vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
