Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Pretzelmaker Rewards at none against Sbarro's shown. Pretzelmaker Rewards also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Sbarro's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 307). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
