The clearest difference is review sentiment: Julian at 67% against SAFEREP's 17%. Julian also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.4) and ratings volume (4.8K vs 19). SAFEREP's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Julian sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. SAFEREP asks for nothing beyond the download.
