Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Line at none against Color Lanes's shown. Line also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Color Lanes's advantage is update cadence (every 7 months vs every 21 months). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
