The call

Al Mayadeen and تطبيق المركز both sit at 4.1 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of تطبيق المركز's written reviews are positive against 39% of Al Mayadeen's. Al Mayadeen's advantage is ratings volume (138 vs 5) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
