Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Exceed SPF at none against Peak Strength's 6. Exceed SPF also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 72%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Peak Strength's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 13 months) and ratings volume (1.5K vs 10). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
