Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AutoBuyAsst at none against PayBack's 1. AutoBuyAsst also leads on update cadence (daily vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). PayBack's advantage is ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
