Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Photo Start at none against Learning Hangul's 3. Photo Start also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 6 months). Learning Hangul's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
