Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Blast at free with in-app purchases against Stretch Reminder's subscription. Blast also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.2). Stretch Reminder's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
