Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: UniCar at 4.7 against Premium Car Service's 3.0. UniCar also leads on ratings volume (534 vs 4). Premium Car Service's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 60%) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

UniCar holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: UniCar has 534 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of UniCar's written reviews are positive against 100% of Premium Car Service's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
