Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Japanese Browser at 4.8 against Web Browser +'s 3.5. Japanese Browser also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). Web Browser +'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
