Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Thrivestone at 28 against Trichromatic's 1. Thrivestone also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Trichromatic's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
