Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Self Esteem at none against CereFit's shown. Self Esteem also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 months). CereFit's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
