Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SquirrelView Mobile at none against Cartogram's 1. SquirrelView Mobile also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). Cartogram's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 9 days). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
