Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Concurrent at none against An Post's shown. Concurrent also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and device support (3 vs 1). An Post's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
