Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FriedrichGo at 4.7 against Power Bob's 2.6. FriedrichGo also leads on ratings volume (3.2K vs 35) and review sentiment (38% vs 23%). Power Bob's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 22 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
