Verdict
DRMemory and App Update Access both sit at 4.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of App Update Access's written reviews are positive against 53% of DRMemory's. App Update Access also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (16 vs 1). DRMemory's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
