Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: MapChart App at none against Chartik's shown. MapChart App also leads on ratings volume (4.8K vs 2). Chartik's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
