Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Charts at 5.0 against Schema's 4.3. Charts also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 62%) and in-app purchases (none vs 4). Schema's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (13 vs 2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
