Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Reggie App at none against Calm's 10. The Reggie App also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Calm's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 months) and chart position (#5 vs unranked). On price there is nothing between them.
