Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Dopamine Detox at weekly against Quitzilla's every 10 months. Dopamine Detox also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 75%) and iOS requirement (16.1 vs 26.0). Quitzilla's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 15). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
