Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: SQLite Mobile Client at none against Json Genie's shown. SQLite Mobile Client also leads on ratings volume (200 vs 6) and chart position (#127 vs unranked). Json Genie's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 4 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
