Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: PDF Magic at 100% against Feather's 43%. PDF Magic also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). Feather's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (23 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
