Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Duffl at 4.4 against I.V. Deli's 3.0. Duffl also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 46 months) and ratings volume (192 vs 2). I.V. Deli's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
