Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Mass Lottery at none against Frank's shown. Mass Lottery also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (68K vs 3). Frank's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 36%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
