Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sweden Location at none against ColorVu's 10. Sweden Location also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). ColorVu's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
