Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AURA App at 4.0 against Slimpal's 2.5. AURA App also leads on ratings volume (1K vs 30) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). Slimpal's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 18) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
