Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Real Estate Dictionary at Free against Units App's $0.99. Real Estate Dictionary also leads on rating (4.6 vs 2.0) and ratings volume (360 vs 1). Units App's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
