Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Daily Devo at every 2 weeks against North Monroe's every 33 months. Daily Devo also leads on ratings volume (200 vs 19) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). North Monroe's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
