Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Never Drop at 5.0 against Granny's 4.4. Never Drop also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 82%). Granny's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 75 months) and ratings volume (101K vs 4). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
