Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Thai PBS for iPhone at none against Thaiger's 2. Thai PBS for iPhone also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (42% vs 29%). Thaiger's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
