Verdict

The call

Nest Egg and Inventory Count both sit at 4.3 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Inventory Count's written reviews are positive against 20% of Nest Egg's. Inventory Count also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks). Nest Egg's advantage is ratings volume (48 vs 7). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
