Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: TapTap at none against Anime Wallpaper's shown. TapTap also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Anime Wallpaper's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 52%) and ratings volume (84K vs 10K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Anime Wallpaper sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and TapTap sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
