Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: MBito at 2.5 against In's 1.8. MBito also leads on review sentiment (25% vs 0%) and ratings volume (20 vs 4). In's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
