Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Daily Postcard at none against Postfun's shown. Daily Postcard also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). Postfun's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 4.0) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
