Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: E at none against Legal Dictionary's 1. E also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Legal Dictionary's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 46). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
