Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Curly at none against SendMan's 2. Curly also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). SendMan's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
