Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Knife Master Hit at none against Pineapple Pen's shown. Knife Master Hit also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and rating (4.7 vs 4.3). Pineapple Pen's advantage is ratings volume (6K vs 6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
