Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Junior el Coqui at none against Tomato Evolution's shown. Junior el Coqui also leads on update cadence (daily vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Tomato Evolution's advantage is ratings volume (53 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
