Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flight Time Calculator at none against POH Reader's 1. Flight Time Calculator also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). POH Reader's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 13 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
