Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Cryptogram at none against The Cryptography's 2. Cryptogram also leads on update cadence (every 10 months vs every 25 months). The Cryptography's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
