Verdict
The clearest difference is price: PDF Tools Pro at Free against Custom Chime's $0.99. PDF Tools Pro also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 26 months). Custom Chime's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
