Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: TARTE at 100% against DateCam's 49%. TARTE also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). DateCam's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (18 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
