Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: V at 5.0 against ArcticDolphin's 2.9. V also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 13.0). ArcticDolphin's advantage is ratings volume (33 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
