Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Spring Classic at 4.3 against TagTweet Lite's 2.0. Spring Classic also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 48 months). TagTweet Lite's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs paid). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
