Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Cadence at 746 against TextPanda's 3. Cadence also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). TextPanda's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
