Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FATdrop at none against Sessions's 5. FATdrop also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.1 vs 15.5). Sessions's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
