Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: CANAL+ at 3.8 against Wassa's 2.0. CANAL+ also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and ratings volume (516 vs 2). Wassa's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
