The call

The clearest difference is rating: DREAM.DO. at 5.0 against EVEN's 3.9. DREAM.DO. also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). EVEN's advantage is ratings volume (46 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
