Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Giant Eagle at none against Homeland Stores's shown. Giant Eagle also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (84K vs 1.9K). Homeland Stores's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
