Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: DLish at 100% against TopGuru's 29%. DLish also leads on rating (4.5 vs 3.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 30). TopGuru's advantage is price (Free vs $0.99) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
