Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: 100 Dates at free with in-app purchases against Bucket List's subscription. 100 Dates also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 70%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). Bucket List's advantage is ratings volume (624 vs 13). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
