Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: DAFpay at fortnightly against MyZmanim's every 8 months. DAFpay also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 70%). MyZmanim's advantage is ratings volume (106 vs 11) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.5). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
