Verdict

The call

Member Tools and Post both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Post's written reviews are positive against 60% of Member Tools's. Post also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs monthly). Member Tools's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (112K vs 5). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
