Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Curated Planet at none against Viamo's shown. Curated Planet also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). Viamo's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
