Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: A+ Mobile at 90% against Amplify Mobile's 24%. A+ Mobile also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.0) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Amplify Mobile's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
