Both are free to download. Addiwan sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per month and local platform sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.5 for Addiwan against 4.5 for local platform.
