Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PENN GPS at 50% against Pulse ·'s 0%. Pulse ·'s advantage is rating (4.5 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (8 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Pulse · holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pulse · has 8 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Pulse ·'s written reviews are positive against 50% of PENN GPS's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
