The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: SnapTab at daily against Bluebird App's monthly. SnapTab also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Bluebird App's advantage is ratings volume (22K vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
