Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: augg.io at none against PostgreSQL Client's 1. augg.io also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.4). PostgreSQL Client's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
