Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Postidal at 100% against Crate & Barrel's 55%. Postidal also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Crate & Barrel's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 1). On price, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
