Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Smash Hit+ at none against Smash Hit's 2. Smash Hit+ also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Smash Hit's advantage is ratings volume (109K vs 1.7K) and chart position (#101 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
