Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Recall It at Free against On the line's $0.99. Recall It also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On the line's advantage is ratings volume (140 vs 1) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
