Verdict
RodeoNow and PBR both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of RodeoNow's written reviews are positive against 63% of PBR's. RodeoNow also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). PBR's advantage is ratings volume (2.4K vs 68). On price, rating, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
