Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: RTP Palco at 100% against MEO Go's 21%. RTP Palco also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.9) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). MEO Go's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (59 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
