Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hide at 5.0 against SalemNOW's 4.3. Hide also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). SalemNOW's advantage is ratings volume (89 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
