Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: MChoreo at weekly against UDBapp Pro's every 6 weeks. MChoreo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). UDBapp Pro's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 5) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
