Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Desk Control at none against Power to Performance's 1. Desk Control also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Power to Performance's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
