Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: ShiftMate at none against Calendarity's shown. ShiftMate also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 50%). Calendarity's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
