Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Platypus Evolution at 4.8 against sh's 3.6. Platypus Evolution also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (6.1K vs 36). sh's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
