Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CFR at 5.0 against Sole Steals's 4.1. CFR also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 65%) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). Sole Steals's advantage is ratings volume (501 vs 7) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
