Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: RSBN at 90% against TPUSA's 53%. RSBN also leads on ratings volume (37K vs 107) and rating (4.9 vs 4.5). TPUSA's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
