Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Hostplus at 4.9 against Sorted's 3.7. Hostplus also leads on ratings volume (80 vs 7) and review sentiment (49% vs 38%). Sorted's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
