Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Forma at 4.3 against Autonomous's 3.8. Forma also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (559 vs 8). Autonomous's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
