Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: XC Plus at Free against Stopwatch%'s $0.99. XC Plus also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.1) and review sentiment (100% vs 72%). Stopwatch%'s advantage is ratings volume (155 vs 2) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
