Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Friendi at none against Sonvo's 2. Friendi also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Sonvo's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
