Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Al Eshraq at none against Amro's shown. Al Eshraq also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Amro's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 34 months) and ratings volume (62 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
