Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PhotoLink widget at 77% against AirMesh's 0%. PhotoLink widget also leads on rating (4.4 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 47 months). AirMesh's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
