Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Giftings at none against Dae's 2. Giftings also leads on ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). Dae's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, rating and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
