Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Halloween Countdown at none against Been Together's shown. Halloween Countdown also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Been Together's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
