Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: ITS LIVE at 5.0 against IMSA's 4.1. ITS LIVE also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 28%). IMSA's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (69 vs 1). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
