Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: ThinkTrader at every 6 days against Sentry Trade's every 3 months. ThinkTrader also leads on ratings volume (790 vs 3). Sentry Trade's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 84%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
