Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Fileyan at Free against Socode's $4.99. Fileyan also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (100% vs 73%). Socode's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
