Verdict

The call

Blackbird and TableWith both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of TableWith's written reviews are positive against 36% of Blackbird's. TableWith also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Blackbird's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (13K vs 7). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
