Verdict
The clearest difference is price: PuchiScreen at Free against WatchVideo Player's $1.99. PuchiScreen also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). WatchVideo Player's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
