Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Flutter Starlight at 4.7 against PoppySphere's 4.1. Flutter Starlight also leads on ratings volume (8.3K vs 89) and review sentiment (82% vs 66%). PoppySphere's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
