Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: When's Eid? at none against Podcast Player's 4. When's Eid? also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Podcast Player's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 1) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
