Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bitcoin Keeper at 73% against Bitcoin's 36%. Bitcoin Keeper also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). Bitcoin's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
