Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Trivia at none against Flashback Trivia's 27. Trivia also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Flashback Trivia's advantage is ratings volume (8.9K vs 1) and chart position (#30 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
