Verdict

The call

DealDog and Croissant both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 89% of DealDog's written reviews are positive against 62% of Croissant's. DealDog also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). Croissant's advantage is ratings volume (556 vs 27) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
