Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QODO at none against TrueNAS Pulse's 1. QODO also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.6). TrueNAS Pulse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (9 vs 1). On price and rating there is nothing between them.
