Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Numa at 71% against Tekion's 17%. Numa also leads on rating (3.9 vs 1.9) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Tekion's advantage is ratings volume (394 vs 20). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
