Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SplitRig at none against Dual Camera's 14. SplitRig also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). Dual Camera's advantage is iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
