Classifying them by type of attack and providing greater context, this application seeks to help people outside Syria understand the level of near perpetual danger people in Syria currently experience daily. Syria Watch is a project of the Syrian Emergency Task Force, a 501-C(3) organization based in Washington, D.C. SETF provides humanitarian assistance to several IDP hotspots in Syria, coordinates pending legal work against the Syrian regime, and advocates for a democratic, stable, and secular future Syria.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Syria Watch at none against StreamEar's 2. Syria Watch also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). StreamEar's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
