Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Dominion at 4.9 against Storm Count's 4.2. Dominion also leads on ratings volume (4.7K vs 10) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 10.0). Storm Count's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 17) and review sentiment (100% vs 68%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Dominion holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Dominion has 4.7K ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Storm Count's written reviews are positive against 68% of Dominion's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
