Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Stream Trace at none against Neon Wings's 16. Stream Trace also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Neon Wings's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
