Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: piXedid at none against Sync's 4. piXedid also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.6). Sync's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
