Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: ThumbDash at none against Catedrop's shown. ThumbDash also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Catedrop's advantage is ratings volume (6.5K vs 1) and chart position (#137 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. ThumbDash sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and Catedrop sells 8 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
ThumbDash holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Catedrop has 6.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
