Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GoCoEdit at 78% against Unit Converter Watch's 33%. GoCoEdit also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 38 months). Unit Converter Watch's advantage is price ($1.99 vs $8.99) and chart position (#199 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
