Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Walla App at none against Roots Cycle's shown. Walla App also leads on ratings volume (4.7K vs 7) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Roots Cycle's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, rating and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
