Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pangeo M at none against SockSB's 10. Pangeo M also leads on ads (none vs shown). SockSB's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 16 months) and ratings volume (36 vs 1). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
