Verdict
PHILIP B. and ANINE BING both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of PHILIP B.'s written reviews are positive against 60% of ANINE BING's. PHILIP B. also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). ANINE BING's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
