Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: FLTR at none against IMDb's shown. FLTR also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). IMDb's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 months) and chart position (#81 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
