Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RAISE at none against Monk Monkey's 5. RAISE also leads on review sentiment (86% vs 58%) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). Monk Monkey's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
