Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gravity Type at none against Animation Creator's 5. Gravity Type also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.4). Animation Creator's advantage is ratings volume (30K vs 4) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
