Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: The Greyson at every 3 weeks against OPTIM Resident's every 11 months. The Greyson also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). OPTIM Resident's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
