Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: PicAccess at 100% against HTML Viewer Pro's 49%. PicAccess also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.9) and ads (none vs shown). HTML Viewer Pro's advantage is ratings volume (45 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.4). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
