Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Secure Express at none against Singapore Airlines's shown. Secure Express also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Singapore Airlines's advantage is ratings volume (45K vs 2). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
