Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PubHead at none against Spoons's 2. PubHead also leads on review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). Spoons's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
