Verdict
The clearest difference is price: PixelAnalyzer at Free against Counter's $0.99. PixelAnalyzer also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.6). Counter's advantage is chart position (#192 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
