Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: vChannel at none against 台灣牌計番's 3. vChannel also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). 台灣牌計番's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
