YAMatch

Yet Another Match three - or YAM is a new take on the classic game. The key differences are that matching fruit are not automatically cleared and swaps that don't result in a match stay, allowing you to move fruit towards a match. This does cost a star - and if all stars are gone - it's a game over. But don't despair, it is possible to reshuffle the board by a long press, but that also costs a star. But hey, you get a bonus star for every level you pass with less than 20 swaps and if you pass a level with less swaps than last time. Swap fruits to match 3 or more in a row. Matching fruits are cleared only if a swap produces a match, sometimes you will need to swap two identical fruit to clear the match. You can make a swap that does not result in a match or long press to reshuffle. Both actions cost 1 star. If you lose all stars - the game is over. You get bonus stars for passing levels and for doing it with less swaps. Avoid top row. Good Luck!

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: YAMatch at none against FlinkQuest's 1. YAMatch also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.1). FlinkQuest's advantage is device support (5 vs 3). On price, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
