Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CountMe at none against Counter's 1. CountMe also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and ratings volume (15 vs 1). Counter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
