Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Wall Paint at 3.9 against PaintPlanner's 3.5. Wall Paint also leads on ratings volume (18 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). PaintPlanner's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
