Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Baby Einstein at none against pocket.watch's shown. Baby Einstein also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 82%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). pocket.watch's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 10 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
