Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: D1Pulse at none against SportsEngine Play's 4. D1Pulse also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). SportsEngine Play's advantage is ratings volume (689 vs 3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
