Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: PokerTimer Professional at every 4 months against Blackjack Strategy+'s every 13 months. PokerTimer Professional also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Blackjack Strategy+'s advantage is price ($3.99 vs $6.99) and review sentiment (70% vs 60%). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
