Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Eye Recommend at none against Reflex's 5. Eye Recommend also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.6). Reflex's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 13 months) and chart position (#137 vs unranked). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
