Verdict

The call

Wemlin and PSTA Access both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 79% of Wemlin's written reviews are positive against 10% of PSTA Access's. Wemlin also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). PSTA Access's advantage is ratings volume (77 vs 3) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
