Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SRF/YSS at none against DELO's 6. SRF/YSS also leads on ratings volume (400 vs 5). DELO's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 83%). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
