Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iCMOB at 4.7 against Realtime's 3.0. iCMOB also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 33%) and ratings volume (2.1K vs 1). Realtime's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
