Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: StyleRow at 5.0 against PowerView's 4.4. StyleRow also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). PowerView's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (2.4K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
