Verdict
BCCI and Bowlometer both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 75% of Bowlometer's written reviews are positive against 26% of BCCI's. Bowlometer also leads on iOS requirement (14.1 vs 17.0). BCCI's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 12 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
