Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: MyJABLOTRON 2 at every 4 weeks against CTR's every 9 months. MyJABLOTRON 2 also leads on review sentiment (23% vs 0%). CTR's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
