Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Live Wallpapers AR at none against Live Wallpaper Maker's shown. Live Wallpapers AR also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). Live Wallpaper Maker's advantage is review sentiment (85% vs 54%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
