Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MACtv at 4.0 against Players Cards's 3.5. MACtv also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). Players Cards's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 14 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
