Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: QRCode at 88% against NuWave Connect's 13%. QRCode also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). NuWave Connect's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
