Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AIRROBO at 2.9 against Poolstar's 1.7. AIRROBO also leads on ratings volume (33 vs 6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Poolstar's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
