Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mallangi at none against Journal Decor's 5. Mallangi also leads on ads (none vs shown). Journal Decor's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
