Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Planet Builder at 5.0 against Human Evolution's 4.6. Planet Builder also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs monthly). Human Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (3.2K vs 5) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
