Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: pOpshelf at 4.8 against Dollar Tree's 3.2. pOpshelf also leads on review sentiment (43% vs 22%) and ratings volume (18K vs 464). Dollar Tree's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and chart position (#90 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
