Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: OSN+ at 4.4 against :recommended's 4.0. OSN+ also leads on ratings volume (23K vs 1) and chart position (#152 vs unranked). :recommended's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
