Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: NOW 94.5 at 5.0 against Dude Perfect's 4.4. NOW 94.5 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 72%). Dude Perfect's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (3.4K vs 3). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
