Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 天潮信使 at none against iMe's 10. 天潮信使 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). iMe's advantage is ratings volume (9.4K vs 1) and chart position (#139 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
