Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Jallikattu Run at none against Polybear's 4. Jallikattu Run also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 13 months). Polybear's advantage is ratings volume (68 vs 5). On price, rating, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
