Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Alive 90.5 at none against 92 Mix FM's shown. Alive 90.5 also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). 92 Mix FM's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
