The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SQUIRE™ Commander at none against Trimmr's 6. SQUIRE™ Commander also leads on ratings volume (4.6K vs 3). Trimmr's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 11 days). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
