Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Puff Club at every 10 days against Pulse's every 4 months. Puff Club also leads on ratings volume (29 vs 2). Pulse's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
