Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Scavify at none against Custom Bingo's shown. Scavify also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (1K vs 11). Custom Bingo's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs freemium). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
