Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ABCDEF at none against Brainstorm's 4. ABCDEF also leads on ads (none vs shown). Brainstorm's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
