Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: 1 Second Daily Cam at none against Daylog's shown. 1 Second Daily Cam also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). Daylog's advantage is iOS requirement (15.5 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
