Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Redd at free against Omera's freemium. Redd also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.4). Omera's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and review sentiment (95% vs 75%). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
