Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: ChartDay at 100% against Graph's 30%. ChartDay also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.9) and iOS requirement (16.2 vs 26.0). Graph's advantage is ratings volume (15 vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
