Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Blu Bee at every 2 weeks against Sarku Japan's every 3 months. Blu Bee also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Sarku Japan's advantage is ratings volume (264 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
