Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Nomu at 95 against Window's 1. Nomu also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). Window's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 86%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
