Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: reLend at 100% against Sun Tan City's 22%. reLend also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Sun Tan City's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 5) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
