Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sub Count at none against MovieDiary's 1. Sub Count also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (62% vs 35%). MovieDiary's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). On price, rating, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
