Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MachBackflow at none against SnakeLog's shown. MachBackflow also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 83%). SnakeLog's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (12 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
