Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Socialo at none against Samplia's shown. Socialo also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). Samplia's advantage is ratings volume (391 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
