Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: OpusTel at none against Swiss Post's shown. OpusTel also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Swiss Post's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (72 vs 6). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
