Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CloudEdge at 63% against AI View's 10%. CloudEdge also leads on rating (4.3 vs 1.7) and ratings volume (21K vs 51). AI View's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 21) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
