Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Bakell® at 100% against Dollar Tree's 20%. Bakell® also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). Dollar Tree's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (488 vs 28). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
