Verdict
Obr and IQ Booking both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of IQ Booking's written reviews are positive against 65% of Obr's. IQ Booking also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly). Obr's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 12) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
