Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: UDevice at every 3 weeks against IDFA's every 14 months. UDevice also leads on chart position (#13 vs unranked). IDFA's advantage is price ($0.99 vs $4.99) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
