Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 牛精灵 at 4.5 against Seetong's 3.6. 牛精灵 also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). Seetong's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, ratings volume, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
