Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LootAtlas at none against MapGenie's 1. LootAtlas also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 24 months). MapGenie's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 3). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
