Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Lightfall Photos at Free against Pixagram's $0.99. Lightfall Photos also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Pixagram's advantage is ratings volume (254 vs 1) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.1). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
