Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Dart Counter at 4.0 against PDC's 2.9. Dart Counter also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). PDC's advantage is ratings volume (88 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
