The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Ackerwetter at free with in-app purchases against Pflotsh Storm's subscription. Ackerwetter also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Pflotsh Storm's advantage is review sentiment (85% vs 75%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
