Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: YMGuide at 5.0 against VideoCopy's 4.5. YMGuide also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). VideoCopy's advantage is ratings volume (10K vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VideoCopy sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $19.99 per 3 months and YMGuide sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
