Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flash Studio at none against Nodex's 2. Flash Studio also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Nodex's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
