Verdict

The call

Monkey Flight and Coffee Pool both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 92% of Monkey Flight's written reviews are positive against 41% of Coffee Pool's. Monkey Flight also leads on ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#163 vs unranked). Coffee Pool's advantage is price (Free vs $1.99) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 months). On rating, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
