Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Teddy at none against Ellipse's 3. Teddy also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.0). Ellipse's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 4). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Teddy against 4.7 for Ellipse. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Ellipse has 2K ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 100% of Teddy's written reviews are positive against 79% of Ellipse's.
