Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: vEBuLa at 50% against Imagez's 37%. vEBuLa also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.6). Imagez's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and price ($1.99 vs $2.99). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
