Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Split Screen at 4.5 against Dual Window's 1.0. Split Screen also leads on review sentiment (65% vs 25%) and ratings volume (1.1K vs 3). Dual Window's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
