Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PACC at none against MacrosFirst's 9. PACC also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0.0 vs 16.0). MacrosFirst's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 18 months) and chart position (#93 vs unranked). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
