Verdict
Yogurtland and Cold Stone both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 58% of Yogurtland's written reviews are positive against 19% of Cold Stone's. Cold Stone's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, in-app purchases and chart position there is nothing between them.
