Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: 5Q at none against KnowIt Trivia's shown. 5Q also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). KnowIt Trivia's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.2). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
