Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Parler at Free against FutaView's $2.99. Parler also leads on rating (3.9 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). FutaView's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ads (none vs shown). On review sentiment there is nothing between them.
