Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: miPADDLE at 5.0 against Sparrow's 4.5. miPADDLE also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Sparrow's advantage is ratings volume (3.6K vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
