Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Cocam at none against GRImageViewer's shown. Cocam also leads on rating (3.9 vs 3.4) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks). GRImageViewer's advantage is ratings volume (42 vs 7). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
