Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Picklr at 100% against The Picklr's 22%. Picklr also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). The Picklr's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ratings volume (552 vs 12). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
