Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Retime at every 5 days against StuLOG's every 2 months. Retime also leads on review sentiment (72% vs 43%). StuLOG's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
