Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Watermelon Jewels at none against Grid's 1. Watermelon Jewels also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Grid's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
