Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ProdigiTV at none against TrackISS's 1. ProdigiTV also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). TrackISS's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
