Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Tradition at 4.3 against Tri's 1.7. Tradition also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 6%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). Tri's advantage is ratings volume (293 vs 24) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
