Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Boom Feed at Free against Feedibus's $3.99. Boom Feed also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Feedibus's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 12 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
