Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Recomate at none against Subnet Plus's 1. Recomate also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Subnet Plus's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (54 vs 1). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
