Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Gal Hiam at Free against Lai Siangtho's $4.99. Gal Hiam also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). Lai Siangtho's advantage is review sentiment (83% vs 57%) and chart position (#179 vs unranked). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Gal Hiam holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.1. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 27 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 83% of Lai Siangtho's written reviews are positive against 57% of Gal Hiam's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
