Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lockscreen at none against Top Four's 1. Lockscreen also leads on review sentiment (67% vs 50%). Top Four's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
