Verdict
Plain Silver and Dairy Boy both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Dairy Boy's written reviews are positive against 30% of Plain Silver's. Dairy Boy also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Plain Silver's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2.7K vs 12). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
