Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Concepts at none against TalkVideo's shown. Concepts also leads on chart position (#190 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). TalkVideo's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 77%) and update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
