Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Shut at 5.0 against Peggity's 3.7. Shut also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). Peggity's advantage is ratings volume (6 vs 1) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
