Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: PlayStation App at every 3 weeks against CRAYON's every 5 months. PlayStation App also leads on chart position (#35 vs unranked). CRAYON's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
