Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ScoreSource at 100% against Hail State's 38%. ScoreSource also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). Hail State's advantage is ratings volume (205 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
