Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MemoriMe at none against Patina Project's shown. MemoriMe also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). Patina Project's advantage is ratings volume (157 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.5). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
