Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Begin.Watch at 64% against ARY Plus's 11%. Begin.Watch also leads on rating (4.5 vs 2.2) and ads (none vs shown). ARY Plus's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and chart position (#131 vs unranked). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
