Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: 4DGram at 5.0 against ProgTV's 3.9. 4DGram also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). ProgTV's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.2 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
