Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: AfterFace at none against Mgic AI's shown. AfterFace also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Mgic AI's advantage is ratings volume (147 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
