Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Jukemeister at 100% against The Queue's 20%. Jukemeister also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). The Queue's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
