Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Lima Flight at none against Tapatalk's shown. Lima Flight also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (75% vs 49%). Tapatalk's advantage is ratings volume (16K vs 9). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
