Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Cat Spa at 8.2K against Stepets's 262. Cat Spa also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (76% vs 67%). Stepets's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
