Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Yella Studio at free with in-app purchases against Speir On Demand's subscription. Yella Studio also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Speir On Demand's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (72 vs 3). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
