Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Maimonides at 100% against My Astound's 8%. Maimonides also leads on update cadence (every 6 months vs every 35 months). My Astound's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
