Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Sign at 100% against LedArt's 28%. Sign also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.8) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). LedArt's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
