Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: PinPlus+ at none against Parallel's shown. PinPlus+ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Parallel's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 2) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
