Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: My CDGA at 4.0 against X's 2.3. My CDGA also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and review sentiment (33% vs 13%). X's advantage is ratings volume (66 vs 4) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
