The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Journey at none against Locket's 2. The Journey also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (29 vs 4). Locket's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
