Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hue Island at none against MyPattern's 1. Hue Island also leads on ads (none vs shown). MyPattern's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 11 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
