Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: MPAMA at 100% against Spark Member's 18%. MPAMA also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.7) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Spark Member's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (362 vs 27). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
