Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Streamyfin at none against shayen's shown. Streamyfin also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and rating (4.2 vs 4.0). shayen's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.4). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
