Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Dino Cap at 4.5 against FishPond's 3.5. Dino Cap also leads on ratings volume (440 vs 17) and iOS requirement (5.1 vs 18.0). FishPond's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
