Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: Neat at free with in-app purchases against Hackfy's subscription. Neat also leads on ratings volume (6 vs 1). Hackfy's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
