Verdict

The call

TwinViewer and Side by side video both sit at 4.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 63% of TwinViewer's written reviews are positive against 7% of Side by side video's. TwinViewer also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). Side by side video's advantage is ratings volume (705 vs 24). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
