Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: SCover at 100% against Unzip Pro's 48%. SCover also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Unzip Pro's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (54 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
