Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Billdu at free with in-app purchases against Nova Invoice's subscription. Billdu also leads on ratings volume (26K vs 336) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Nova Invoice's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
