Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Dakuten at none against Morse Code's 1. Dakuten also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (95% vs 70%). Morse Code's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
