Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Círculo at none against URnetwork's 4. Círculo also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). URnetwork's advantage is ratings volume (290 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
