Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Play at Free against MEGAPLAY's $0.99. Play also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 12 months) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). MEGAPLAY's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and review sentiment (80% vs 70%). On ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Play holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 20 and 26 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of MEGAPLAY's written reviews are positive against 70% of Play's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency
