Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: JetBlue at 4.9 against Avelo's 4.3. JetBlue also leads on ratings volume (1.5M vs 7.8K) and review sentiment (20% vs 9%). Avelo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
