Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Eventually at every 3 days against Ripples's fortnightly. Eventually also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.6). Ripples's advantage is ratings volume (220 vs 7) and review sentiment (93% vs 80%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
