Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Público GenP at 100% against Expresso's 24%. Público GenP also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Expresso's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (58 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
