Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: C at none against BlogTalky's 1. C also leads on chart position (#69 vs unranked). BlogTalky's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
