The clearest difference is ads: Nitefall at none against Private Full Screen Browser's shown. Nitefall also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 4 months). Private Full Screen Browser's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 3.9) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.4). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
