Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hemlock at none against Sidekick Tools's 5. Hemlock also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Sidekick Tools's advantage is ratings volume (2.3K vs 13) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
