Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Thoughtful Intelligence at none against Bee's 2. Thoughtful Intelligence also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). Bee's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (3K vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
