Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ROOKIE at none against DICK’S Sporting Goods's shown. ROOKIE also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). DICK’S Sporting Goods's advantage is ratings volume (531K vs 1) and chart position (#25 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
