Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: FlashTheWorld at none against Dekripto's shown. FlashTheWorld also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 days) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Dekripto's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 90%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
