Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Graffiti Art at 100% against Dwell Magazine's 13%. Graffiti Art also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and ads (none vs shown). Dwell Magazine's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (906 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
