Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Bowlr at none against Counter +'s shown. Bowlr also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.2) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18). Counter +'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks) and ratings volume (392 vs 80). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
