Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Sticky Terms at Free against GNOG's $4.99. Sticky Terms also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (2.7K vs 290). GNOG's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#194 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
