Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: My Scrybe at 100% against BMI Online Services's 18%. My Scrybe also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.7) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 4 weeks). BMI Online Services's advantage is ratings volume (50 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
